The 4th annual Warrior Love 5K is back on the Oregon Coast this February – tackling the Nehalem State Park and raising money for the S.H.E Warriors, the local city’s 4th and 5th grade girls running club, which promotes self-confidence, friendship, and health while training for local 5k and 10k races! This chip timed event runs in the trails around the park and is pretty low-key and well put together. Teresa ran this event last year and…

The Warrior Love 5K/10K is back for its third year on Saturday, February 4th in Nehalem, Oregon. This run isn’t just a good excuse to escape to the coast, but also raises money for the S.H.E.

After doing a short race preview for the Warrior Love Run at Nehalem Bay State Park on February 7th, I thought it would be a fun little race. There are a lot of fun, small races out there, so it initially didn’t temp me much since that’s not my typical distance and Manzanita is quite the drive for a 10K. I kept thinking about it, maybe because Matt was giving me a little push to go run it…
The 2nd Annual Warrior Love Run is a great excuse to make a trip to the beach. Running from Nehalem Bay State Park in Manzanita, this fun run offers a 5k and 10k on Sunday, February 7th. Both distances start at 10am and are chip timed by Scovel Racing. This is a perfect course for a PR since it’s flat and mostly paved. Both courses take advantage of paved trails through the park. It’s a gorgeous area…
