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 12K Wild Cherry Loop and 7K Aspen Trail Loop as two groups. There will be staff leading and trailing the group to accomdate all paces and running levels.
We will be offering a demo of our Norvan LD 3 at the event.

This week, we'll be hosting two distance routes starting and finishing at the store. The 12K route will head down NW Cornell Rd to NW Thurman to catch on to Lower Macleay Trail and then up Wildwood Trail. From there the group will descend down Wild Cherry on to Leif Eriksen and head back to the store via NW Thurman and NW 24th Ave. The 7K group will run the same route up until the Aspen Trail connection. The group will descend there and take NW Thurman and NW 24th back to the store. Both groups are welcome to hangout afterwards and enjoy refreshments!
Â
We'll be offering a demo of our Norvan LD 3Â available at the beginning of the run. If you would like to demo a pair, please plan to arrive early to get fitted.
