The Painted Hills Half Marathon (plus 5K and 10K) is part of the small town of Mitchell’s Painted Hills Festival. All happening on Saturday, August 30, there’s also a quilt show, parade, pie action, vendor booths, and live music, it’s the epitome of summer in Central Oregon.
This is an incredibly unique race that Run Oregon highly recommends. It’s a very small race with an incredibly supportive vibe and beautiful views of the Painted Hills.
Bucket List Race Alert! The Painted Hills Half Marathon (10k & 5k)
This is a point-to-point race with bib pickup at 7 AM and a shuttle bus to drop you off. It’s a gorgeous climb out of the Painted Hills as you make your way back to Mitchell.
Our editor-in-chief personally recommends checking out Tiger Town Brewery in Mitchell; and as someone who has visited over 800 breweries in his adventures, that’s a tall order!
