Coos Bay, OR, 97420, US
Hilly, scenic trail run along the scenic Oregon Coast. A very challenging course for the longer distances and the views will take what breath you have left away. Seriously, this race has it all, killer hills through the woods, and an amazing flat cliff section where you'll see sea lions, rocks, the deep blue sea, and if you're very lucky, a passing whale. Not to be missed, this is an amazing course at a give-away price.
Speaking of give-aways, we do not include T-shirts in the basic race entry in an effort to keep costs down (come on, this is the cheapest race you've entered since the 80's, right?) and because we know many of you already have a closet full of race T-shirts. BUT, this is a truly awesome race, and you many want a quality, moisture wicking, t-shirt to subtly brag that you did it. So we have that option too.
Sunset State Park is a very gracious host and we want to keep our welcome warm. Please do not park on the grass!
Restrooms and water are located at the start/finish line. There are also restrooms at 4 miles for the 15 K and 1/2 Marathon participants. The course is open to traffic, so be alert. This is a RRCA sanctioned event. For safety, NO headphones, rollerblades, skateboards (hey, you're on trails, that's not even possible), bicycles, animals, or jogging strollers are allowed during the race.
Proceeds from the event will be donated to the Pregnancy Resource Center in Coos Bay.
Ribbons to top three winners overall and in each age-group. There will also be tons of fabulous prizes donated by local businesses.

Participants can anticipate a straightforward and scenic 1-mile course primarily along the beach. The terrain will be sandy, which can present a unique challenge and require a slightly different running gait than hard-packed trails.
