Press Release: 2017 Oregon Half & Full Marathon Series
This web site includes mapping, calendaring, videos, custom pages for each event, and rotating banner ads. Runners can participate in “challenges” that include a number of races, and at the end of the year they are rewarded for it by receiving a free custom medal for their achievement. Elite Runners are ranked as well and qualify to become the open or masters male/female champions at the end of the year. Runners simply register for races that are on the series to be included in these challenges.
The series is also due to be re-releasing an app in January 2017, which will be a re-branding of a pre-existing app used for CA. The app will allow runners from all three states the ability to get in and register for races at the click of a button and watch promotional videos that generally get lost on race promoters web sites.
