Description

Join us for the 18th year of Run for the Hills. This year, we are offering 30k, 8k, and two mile options. There is also a 1/4 mile Kids Run! The 8K course uses Bald Hill Natural Area while the 30k course continues beyond Bald Hill up to the Fitton Green Natural Area along the Mulkey Creek Trail. This distance also includes Amy's Trail and trails within Crestmont Land Trust. The 30k course is challenging with over 3,000 feet of climbing, but the views are great and the well-built trails are worth the effort. The 2 mile and 1/4 Kids Run are out-and-back races from the Benton County Fairgrounds, all on gravel and paved multi-use path. Ages seven and under are free to register in the 2 Mile race and do not need to register. Please note that the two mile race and the kids run are not timed. Proceeds from this event benefit the Greenbelt Land Trust Trail Fund. This fund helps purchase materials and equipment for trail construction and maintenance by the volunteers who keep our trails safe and passable for the public. More than $85,000 has been raised through this event in the last 17 years.

Refund policy: As a 100% nonprofit community fundraiser, Run For the Hills does not issue refunds for any reason. Thank you for understanding and for pitching in to support our wonderful trails!

Race packets can be picked up at Five Star Sports in Downtown Corvallis on the day before the event between noon and 5:00 pm. Packets can also be picked up on the morning of the event, but we encourage you to grab them on the previous day to expedite everything in the morning.

The 30K and Half Marathon races offers an early start option. The early start is for runners expecting to finish in more than 3.5 hours. Finishers who took the early start will not be included in age group awards unless all runners in their age group also took the early start. In addition, the 30K will have a cut-off time of noon for runners to reach the last aid station. This will help us manage the event and the safety of all participants. Please contact the race director if you want to take the early start.

Online registration ends at 11:59 pm on Wednesday, May 28. Same-day registration is offered for all races except the 30K and half marathon. Shirts are available for order until May 28. Awards will be given to the top three finishers in each age/sex category in the 30K, half marathon, and 8K.
