Scandia Run

The Scandia Run, hosted by the Valley South Athletic Club, is a family-friendly running event held in Junction City, Oregon. The race courses wind through the scenic outskirts of Junction City and the picturesque Willamette Valley farmlands. Participants can choose from a USATF-certified 5K or 10K, both known for being flat and fast, or enjoy a more leisurely 4-mile walk.

Children can join the 400-meter "Run with the Vikings," running alongside Viking-themed characters. The event offers a festive atmosphere, culminating in Junction City's renowned Scandinavian Festival, making it a unique blend of sport and cultural celebration.
