About the Event

The races will be held on Sunday, January 18, 2026. The Half Marathon, 10K, and 2-mile races run on a flat course on country roads, surrounded by scenic farmland. There are water stations and toilets on the course. There is an early option for those expecting to take longer than 2.5 hours to run the Half Marathon. Day of race registration is an option, cash or check is preferred, but we will have an option for credit card.

All finishers will receive a medal as they finish. Awards will be given to the male and female overall and masters winners in the Half Marathon and 10K, as well as three-deep for age group winners, per 10-year age category. No awards will be given for the 2-mile race. Early starters' results in the Half Marathon will not be considered for overall or age group awards. There will also be many random prize giveaways from our generous sponsors! To become a sponsor, please contact us below.

Packet pickup is in the junior high school gym starting at 7:00 AM, where race participants can relax, stretch, and stay warm. Families and friends can hang out in the gym, too. We will have a coffee cart on site, courtesy of I-Jive coffee. Since the race starts and finishes right in front of the gym, you can stay inside until the last minute! Afterward, you can celebrate your accomplishments in the school's cafeteria with hot soup!

Proceeds from the race will benefit Cascade High School's track & field program, as well as provide scholarships to graduating high school seniors from the mid-Willamette Valley who wish to continue their education.

*Day of race registration will be $5 more and can be paid with cash/check/credit card.

**Day of registration is not guaranteed a finisher medal, as a limit has been ordered. Instead, a finisher ribbon will be awarded.

***Dogs are not allowed on the race course.
