Around 10 AM Sunday, thousands of runners — and more than a few walkers — will be passing through Interlaken Park on their way to completing the 2016 Seattle Marathon.

The northern fringes of Capitol Hill will once again mark mile 22.5 of the race so it’s an important area for providing one final boost of cheering and enthusiasm.

The course nearly encircles Central Seattle with lots of street closures and detours. So, basically, the day for runners is also a good day for walking.
