Fleet Foot 5k
The Fleet Foot 5k race is a beautiful tour of the Old Mill and River Parks! This race is fast, scenic, and a great entry run for first time racers at the 5k distances. Starting and finishing at Riverbend Park, this event is runner/walker friendly and is a fun option for walkers or families looking to take on a challenge together.
Bigfoot 10k Race
Bend’s Oldest Foot Race
A runners fall right of passage, the Bigfoot race has been a staple on runners calendars since 1976. A fast “downhill” course from the outskirts of Bend down Century Drive into the heart of the Old Mill, Bigfoot has aided many a runner to a quick 10k PR.
Fall Foot Half
With a successful kickoff last year, the Fall Foot Half won't disappoint! This race is fast, scenic, and is a great run (or walk) for experienced or first time half marathoners.
