ORRC Pumpkin Ridge Run Half Marathon
The ORRC Pumpkin Ridge Run is an annual running event held in North Plains, Oregon, featuring a half marathon, 10K, and 5K distances. The races start and finish at North Plains Elementary School, with courses set on scenic, quiet farm roads around the Pumpkin Ridge area. The 10K and half marathon follow a counterclockwise loop course with rolling hills, while the 5K is an out-and-back route.
The half marathon consists of two loops of the 10K course and has a 3-hour time limit, so walking is not permitted for that distance. All finishers receive medals and cooling towels, and awards are given across various age and gender categories. The event promotes a safe, headphone-free environment and encourages carpooling due to limited parking. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
