Parked at Marymoor Park Lot K, near the tennis courts. No pass required but there's a $1 fee to park for the day ($1 bills and credit/debit cards accepted, no coins). There are several flush toilets near the playground, and potable water (currently shut down due to freezing temperatures).
Our group of 11 met up on time and got underway. Temps were in the high 20s but the sun warmed our spirits! Not a single dog off-leash and the bikers were mostly courteous. I reminded the group to walk no more than two abreast. We had a quick snack and bathroom break at 60 Acres Park. We made quick work of 7.3-mile out-and-back with a moving pace close to 3 mph. It was a fun, chatty group which made the miles go by quickly.
