The past two years, I’ve been unable to run the Stoller Vineyards 5k because I was one of the volunteer RDs for the ORRC Up the Lazy River on Memorial Day. But this year, the Stoller Vineyards 5k has a new date! It was recently changed to Saturday, April 7 and it’s still only $20. Two other great reasons to run this race are that it supports the Dayton HS track and XC programs, and your…

Today’s tip: Run a small race. One of the main reasons I started Run Oregon in February 2007 was because I wanted more people to know about more races. Some races get a lot of coverage – the Shamrock Run and the Portland Marathon, but for runners who are new to the sport, don’t go to group runs, belong to a club, or have a network of running friends didn’t really have a good place to…
When it comes to Run Oregon bloggers who enjoy their beer, we have a wide variety of partakers. But clearly the two most indulgent are Matt Rasmussen and Marilyn Tycer. They typically live on Untappd and have, more than once, ran into each other in beer lines at races and at brewfests around the Northwest. Oregon and Washington are craft and microbrewery royalty, and these two surely are getting their fill. For reference sake, Marilyn has…
I love, love, love the Stoller Vineyards 5k. It’s inexpensive, challenging, beautiful, laid-back, and for a good cause. Your $20 entry fee goes to support athletics programs at Dayton High School, including track and field, who hosts the event. Allow for plenty of time to drive to Stoller Vineyards, and remember your camera. It’s beautiful out there as you can see in these photos from Mike Haverkate!
