Twisted Pine Trail Runs

The Twisted Pine Trail Runs take place at South Beach State Park in Newport, Oregon, offering a scenic and challenging race experience along the Oregon coast. Participants can choose from three distances: half marathon, 10K, and 5K. The courses wind through lush forests with towering pines and dense undergrowth, featuring twisting trails that test runners' agility and strength.

The half marathon includes a unique segment of about a mile running on sandy Pacific Ocean beaches, providing stunning coastal views and the chance to spot local wildlife like seabirds and seals. The event includes chip timing, finisher medals, post-race food, a beer garden, and free race photos. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
