As part of our ten year anniversary celebration we are throwing down a team relay of our favorite trail in Portland, the Wildwood Trail. The Wildwood Relay will be a fun, two to four person run that takes your team over the 30 miles of the Wildwood Trail competing for the fastest time or having a fun day out on the trail!

Here is how it works:

1. You choose your team of 2-4 people. 

2. Choose a team name and an item that you will transfer between each runner (baton, bracelet, toy dinosaur, whatever)

3. You decide your methods; including your starting point (the zoo or Newberry Rd), your handoff locations and distances run for each person on your team. 

4. You submit your team relay overall time. Later, we will request gpx file from each leg of your relay so make sure each person records their segment. 

5. We post your results on our Wildwood Relay Leaderboard. 

The Rules:

1. You cannot have more than three handoff locations. 

2. You cannot illegally park anywhere to make a better handoff location (obviously). 

3. You must be courteous and share the trails with all users of the park. 

How to Win:

Your team has the fastest overall time in your category- (Men's, Women's, Non Binary and Open/Mix Gender)

Next Easy Miles will be Saturday May 18th at 8:30am

We have often experienced shown up at group runs expecting cruising social miles and instead got a brisk pace too intense for chatting up new people. 

We thought it was time for a chilled out group run.

Join us for Easy Miles Run Club!

It is our new run club that is about taking it easy out on the trails and enjoying the good company and the post run bevies.The run club is for those who want some easy miles after a harder effort day, anyone who is looking for a group run that is more about connecting with new people than getting a workout or those who are just getting started in running/ trail running.

You can kick back to a mellow pace, not worry about being left behind and get to know some cool new folks.
