Here are the vitals:
When: Saturday, June 7, 2014

Where: Wait Park at 400 N. Holly Street in Canby
Register: Online here for the 5k for $20 or the 10k for $30 through 6/6. Add a shirt for only $5 more.
The 5k starts out by heading north on N Holly Street, a straight shot past the first mile marker taking out past IFA Nursery to NW 22nd Ave, where you’ll head west to N. Birch, which has a few fun curves before you reach mile 2 and then cross NW Territorial Rd. You’ll turn off N. Birch on NW 9th and then zip down N. Grant past mile 3 to the finish at Wait City Park.
The 10k starts out the same, but instead turns right and runs northeast on NW Territorial Rd. At Eco City Park, you’ll turn north and pass mile 2, running for a short stretch along the Willamette River before rounding the corner onto N. Maple for the mile 3 marker. You’ll head straight down to NW 22nd and then rejoin the 5k participants back to the finish.
Thank you for supporting our race the last few years. June 17th is this years race.
