Fall Foot Half
Come join us in the inaugural Fall Foot Races addition to the Bend Bigfoot 10k! We're adding a new half marathon route that is fast, scenic, and the perfect fall half marathon through the heart of Bend. Join us on October 6th!
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.
Fleet Foot 5k
Come join us for the inaugural Fleet Foot 5k on October 6th! We're adding a 5k and a half marathon to the long running Bigfoot 10k race. The 5k route will center around the Old Mill and be a fast and scenic fall 5k to add to your calendar.
CORK Cross Country
Practices: With the revised middle school schedules this year practice times need to be adjusted to start later but this creates issues with enough daylight after daylight savings. We have created a schedule that we hope will work for most of you with later start times, a day at Farewell Bend Park with lit pathways, and an early start day on Wednesday since everyone has early release that day. I know that this is going to create special logistical challenges for some of you as well but we feel like this is the best solution with the later middle school release times.
UPDATED DATES, TIMES, LOCATIONS:
Oct 6th-Oct 31st (Oct 6, 8, 9, 13 and 15 are for elementary ages only, middle school starts the 16th)
Drake Park - Mon 4:15 - 5:45pm
Drake Park - Wed 4:15 - 5:45pm
Drake Park - Thurs 4:15 - 5:45pm
Nov 3 - Dec 1 (due to daylight savings ending)
Farewell Bend on Monday from 4:15 - 5:45pm because there are lights
Drake Park on Wed from 3:30-5pm because of early release
Drake Park on Thurs 4:15 - 5:15pm with headlamps and we can do easy runs
