Burien Brat Trot

For countless years, the Burien Brat Trot has been a fun event for all ages, in support of the Highline Schools Foundation. Our 5k has always been a fast and (mostly) flat run/walk route through Old Burien, and new this year — the start and finish lines will be adjacent to Town Square Park on SW 152nd St. in Burien, site of Burien Oktoberfest!

Through a partnership with Discover Burien, Burien Brat Trot and Burien Oktoberfest are together for an epic day of fun!

2023 Burien Brat Trot Was a Huge Success!

We welcomed nearly 725 runners at our annual Burien Brat Trot on beautifully sunny Saturday in Downtown Burien. Thanks to our 623 5k runners, and our 95 1k runners for joining us for this fantastic day! More than $37,000 was raised to support the Highline Schools Foundation, thanks to race registrations, sponsorship, merchandise and donations.
The Burien Brat Trot remains one of our longest-running and most loved community events, raising critical funds for the Highline Schools Foundation and our work throughout Highline Public Schools. Funds raised through Brat Trot registrations and event sponsorship supports basic needs, equitable and innovative learning opportunities, and college and career readiness for students at all grade levels and in every school in Highline.
