Race Details

The trails of Forest Park are a real treasure for runners and an opportunity to run a race on them shouldn’t be missed. The only 50K held in Portland, the Stumptown Trail Runs route will include everyone’s favorite – Wildwood Trail – but also some lesser traveled and less well-known paths, with approximately 4,000′ of elevation gain.

The Stumptown Trail Runs half marathon is a fun, challenging and well-supported race that includes beautiful trails and lots of friends and family. These are running events; not walking races.

Both races support the Forest Park Conservancy again this year.

Post Race Party & Awards

After you finish Stumptown, we feed and rehydrate you while you hang out with friends and family.

Every finisher earns a Stumptown pint glass. The top 3 male and female finishers receive prizes from our sponsors. We also have awards for 1st-3rd place age group (in 10-year age categories) and non-binary winners. There are plenty of great raffle prizes too.

Directions and Parking

The race start is a quarter mile up Leif Erikson from the gate at the top of Thurman St. Map.

Parking is on neighborhood streets. Carpooling, taking public transit, or ride share is highly recommended as the parking can get tight and we need to be respectful of the local residents. Do not block driveways.

Given that the park borders private property, there is NO PARKING for spectators at ANY of the aid stations.

We HIGHLY ENCOURAGE CARPOOLING!
If you are interested in carpooling, you can post here to find or give a ride. This is a Google spreadsheet that is viewable to anyone with the link, so only post what you want public. Carpooling earns you a Carpool Coaster too!

Volunteers

We love volunteers and our racers do too! To make this race a success we need people to help at bib pickups, race start and finish, aid stations, and on the trail. You can sign up for the assignment you’d like on Ultrasignup. Click on the green Volunteer button with the heart.

Rules

We do have a few rules that apply to all Go Beyond Racing races. Be sure you are familiar with them.

Training

Need help getting ready for this race? Talk to our friends at Wy’east Wolfpack. They provide excellent coaching and training services.

Social/Community

Be sure to visit our Facebook page. There you’ll find updates and information about the race.

We acknowledge that these races occur on the traditional homelands of the Cowlitz, Clackamas, Atfalai, and Kalapuya Tribes.


Forest Park is a public municipal park in the Tualatin Mountains west of downtown Portland, Oregon, United States. Stretching for more than 8 miles (13 km) on hillsides overlooking the Willamette River, it is one of the country’s largest urban forest reserves. The park, a major component of a regional system of parks and trails, covers more than 5,100 acres (2,064 ha) of mostly second-growth forest with a few patches of old growth. About 70 miles (110 km) of recreational trails, including the Wildwood Trail segment of the city’s 40 Mile Loop system.
