Description

Get in the holiday spirit and bookend your race season with Portland's favorite winter Half Marathon, 5K, and new 10K in December! 

Event Details

All races start and finish at the beautiful Daimler Trucks North America campus on Swan Island and feature carolers and cookies along the course! The 5K boasts a completely flat course along the Willamette waterfront and around their campus and the 10K and half courses also feature a waterfront loop to start and then a fun and scenic North Portland out and back course and a fast downhill finish.
These are one-of-a-kind courses that are the only ones that feature beautiful North Portland, so you can be sure you're getting an amazing un-matched event, full of fantastic features and sights. The Historic St. John's Bridge, the beautiful University of Portland campus, bike path along the Willamette River, and panoramic views of Downtown Portland from the bluff of Willamette Blvd. are just a few of the highlights awaiting you!
GINGERBREAD COOKIE STATIONS!
You heard right! All races will feature a top secret (OK, not so secret) gingerbread cookie aid station so you can experience a little holiday cheer even during the toughest miles.
POST RACE PARTY and FREDDI THE YETI PHOTOS!
Freddi the Yeti--in the flesh...errr FUR!-- will be awaiting you at the finish line for selfies, dance offs, and hugs! After you finish, treat yourself to a seasonal craft beer, hearty holiday soup, hot chocolate, snacks and samples and more! You want holiday music? You get LOTS of Holiday music all morning long! With a combination of carolers along the course and DJ's spinning holiday beats at the finish, you're sure to get your fill of festive cheer this December. 
If you're not excited about Christmas, Hanukkah, and every other Holiday festivity after this race, then you just might be the Grinch!
