What’s extra special about this event is that it kicks off a series of XC races that day.  Following the open race, participants can hang around and watch the Men’s and Women’s College, High School and Junior Olympic races.

Awards!

This course is certified and will be timed by Race Timer.  Awards will be given to the top 3 men & women and master’s men/women.  Top 3 Men and Women’s Teams will receive awards for the top 5 finishers on each team.  Furthermore, we will have lots of random prizes to give away during the raffle drawing following the event, so be sure to get your raffle ticket on race day at the registration booth.

Featured Events

Join Fit Right NW for it's First Thursday Run leaving from NW Portland Thursday October 9th from 5:30 pm - 8:00pm.

The run is similar to an urban adventure scavenger hunt, and the rules are simple:

* At 6pm 2 large maps are shown that have a dozen or so checkpoints on them. These maps entail downtown Portland and some parts of the immediate east side of town.

* Participants will be given an hour to hit as many checkpoints as possible by using their notes taken when the maps are revealed.

* When you arrive at each checkpoint you will be given a raffle ticket good for prizes from our sponsors (link this to our sponsors and prizes for that month section) at the end of the race. How you get there is up to you, but the more raffle tickets you collect the more chances you have of winning prizes at the raffle drawing!


Cost: Free!

Try to hit as many checkpoints as you can, but remember that the raffle drawing starts at 7pm whether you are there or not!

Be sure to bring a watch, good navigational skills, and great attitude!

Didn't win anything at the raffle or not able to make the event?? No worries!

ALL MANUFACTURERS ON SALE FOR THAT DAY ONLY!

Fall is here, and now it's time to bundle up and train through the cold weather approaching.  Gloves, beanies, and sleeves will be arriving at the store in early October from Nike, Smartwool, and Mizuno.  Mizuno has the most interesting and dynamic fabric on the market--they call it their "Breath Thermo Line".  The fabric actually heats up as moisture from your body touches the product!  Amazing, but true.  You've got to see it to believe it, so come in and check out the samples we have so you can see for yourself!  They have beanies, gloves, tops, tights, and headbands in this fabric.

Injinji socks were last month's promotion, but the manufacturer decided to ship our product late and as a result we didn't receive them in time.  For your patience, we would like to discount the socks 10% for the month of October.  That's right, whether you like the Performance Injinji Sock, or the Bamboo Injinji Sock, we will discount them 10% off for the month of October.  There is no limit to how many you can buy--just make sure it's in October
