Join us for our monthly community group run based out of the 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 we will be changing things up a bit! We will start at the Arc'teryx Portland Brand Store and be finishing at Pearl Fest in partnership with Backwoods Brewing and Deschutes Brewing. The route will take us up into the Japanese Garden Trail and then down the Mac Trail, from there we will be running down NW Flanders on the way to Pearl District Beer and Art Festival where runners can enjoy beer, cider, art and music. Runners will have the option to return to the Arc'teryx Portland Store as the run connects back to NW 23rd where they can help themselves to refreshments provided by Deadstock Coffee.
Backwoods Brewing will be offering $5 off for all runners to attend the Pearl Brew Fest, each runner will be able to purchase a day pass for $30, instead of $35, at the entrance of the festival. Please bring a form of payment and a valid ID to enter.

From there, runners will have the option to return to the store or stay with the group as they continue down NW Flanders to the Pearl District Beer and Art Festival. Rest, Recovery, and Refreshments will be provided by Deadstock Coffee at the store for those who head directly back there!
