It’s a ways off, but someday I want to retire in Astoria. It is the perfect town to have the resources you need, enough folks around for community, and beaches that you can walk along for hours. If you haven’t been to Astoria yet (or recently) you should get out there for The Great Columbia Crossing on Sunday, October 9th. This event will provide you a totally unique view of the area from the Astoria-Megler…
Run along the trails of Oregon history on September 17, 2022! As a diehard Washington Husky Fan (sorry Duck fans) who generally refuses to acknowledge all Duck related exploits – this run and the legend that is Steve Prefontaine, or just “Pre”, transcends all rivalries. The magic that is Steve Prefontaine continues to inspire track fans of any age. For those of us who were not of an age to be actively following his determination…

It includes about 3/4 miles of pavement, and has approximately 124’ of elevation gain. The actual…
The South Coast Running Club’s Sunset Bay Trail Run is just a few weeks away on Saturday, September 3, 2022 in Charleston, OR. The 4-mile, 15K, and half marathon distances are just $25 each!

This race will deliver on…
The Oregon Brewery Running Series puts on some amazing running events. For those who have never participated in one of these races, why not? They are family friendly, untimed, and in all honesty, put the “fun” in fun run. This July OBRS are jet-setters with three races – one at the Oregon Coast, one in Portland, and one in Eugene. Each route is always 5k-ish in distance, and open for runners, walkers and even those…
