Event

Location

A very limited group of 1,200 lucky runners will have the exclusive opportunity to propel themselves over many hills that make up Oregon’s world-class wine region.  Entrants will be treated to a unique departure from a typical running course, a large portion of the event will follow unpaved vineyard trails as they wind through rows of grapes and under branches of Oregon’s prized hazelnut trees.

Just as unique as the race venue, the after-race party will offer a perfect opportunity to sample—as well as stock the wine cellar with—some of Oregon’s best offerings, in the company of winemakers and fellow wine connoisseurs.  The event registration fee includes a tech race shirt, a colorful and substantial medal, a logo wine glass, admission to the after-race party, and well-earned tastings of acclaimed Dundee Hills wines … all in the midst of some of Oregon’s most famous wineries.
