Join us for monthly community group runs based out of Arc'teryx Portland Brand Store. Led by our store ambassadors, community partners, and staff, this will be a great opportunity to learn more about trail running and connect with the community. Our goal is to share some of our area's most beautiful trails and reward your effort with new friends and a chance to earn some Arc'teryx gear.
This run will start/end at the Arc'teryx Portland Brand Store, we will run the 5K Mac Trail Loop as one group. There will be staff leading and trailing the group to accomdate all paces and running levels. The run will be followed by an event! Brendan Leonard will be doing a book signing for his book "Ultra-Something". For more information on the event click here.
We will be offering a demo of our Norvan LD 3 and Sylan trail running shoes at the event.

All seasons, any distance – the Norvan LD 3 GTX is made to run all year. High-abrasion mesh upper has GORE-TEX™ protection for breathable comfort in the wettest conditions. The dual-layer internal construction minimizes friction, the toebox is sized to accommodate splay, and the heel and forefoot stack absorbs shock.
The toebox is sized to accommodate splay, and the heel and forefoot stack absorbs shock. Advanced materials – Vibram® Litebase sole, InFuse® midsole – shed grams, and the grippy Vibram® Megagrip outsole’s aggressive 4mm lug pattern delivers a confident bite.
