Group Run in Places We Don’t Have Races #1

They’re back! We’re hosting three group runs in a places where don’t have races. These are on trails that we think are pretty cool and we like to show them off to people. If we could, we’d have a race there, but for various reasons like permitting, parking, scheduling, etc, we don’t. So this is a chance to spend a good chunk of the day with us in the off-season, running, laughing, and sweating, and then grabbing a bite to eat on the way home.

This year’s runs are all out-and-backs, so people can run the entire planned route, or turn around and head back whenever they want:

#1: Larch Mountain (1/24/26) – 13.1 miles

#2: Ecola (2/21/26) – 10.1 miles

#3: Lewis River (3/21/26) – 12 miles

The first run, Larch Mountain, run starts at Multnomah Falls. We’ll meet to carpool at Migration Brewing in Gresham (right off I-84) at 8:00 a.m.. The run meeting spot is by the coffee cart at Multnomah Falls lodge at 8:30. We run up the trail past the waterfall onto the Larch Mt Trail #441 all the way to Sherrard Point. This is a 13.1-mille route with a sturdy 4151′ in gain. We love doing this one in the snow, so let’s hope the weather brings us some fluffy stuff. We’ll return to Migration Brewing for food and drinks afterwards.
