SUMMARY:Holiday Half Portland
DESCRIPTION:Course Highlights\nThe Holiday Half starts and finishes at the beautiful LEED Platinum-certified Daimler Truck North America campus on Swan Island\, overlooking the Willamette River in Portland. The half marathon\, 15K\, 10K\, and 5K routes wind through the city’s northwest neighborhoods and waterfront\, featuring carolers and holiday music stations positioned throughout the course. A popular cookie station greets runners on all distances\, delivering one of the most delicious on-course fuel stops in Oregon racing. \nRace Details\nHosted by Foot Traffic\, Portland’s beloved local running retailer\, the Holiday Half takes place each December and routinely sells out before the start of the month. The half marathon starts at 8 a.m. with a course closure at 11:30 a.m. An early start at 7:40 a.m. is available for slower runners. Group pricing is available for teams of eight or more\, making it a popular team-building and holiday tradition for Portland businesses and running clubs. \nWhy Runners Love It\nThere is no better way to close a Pacific Northwest race season than with this festive celebration of winter running. Costumes are enthusiastically encouraged — think ugly sweaters\, Santa suits\, and holiday characters — transforming Swan Island into a moving holiday parade. The race medal and shirt designs are annually lauded as some of the best in Portland running. The Silver Cloud Inn serves as the official race hotel\, just minutes from the start. \nRace-Weekend Tips\nRegister early — the Holiday Half regularly fills by early December. Bib pick-up takes place at multiple Foot Traffic retail locations in the week before the race. Dress warmly but expect to heat up quickly once running starts. The post-race party at the Daimler campus is a highlight\, so linger and enjoy the holiday atmosphere before heading home. \nWrap up your race year in style — register for the Holiday Half at Foot Traffic.
