SUMMARY:Schlotzsky's Bun Run 5K
DESCRIPTION:Course Highlights\nThe Schlotzsky’s Bun Run takes place in the heart of The Domain — Austin’s premier mixed-use shopping and entertainment district in north Austin — at Century Oak Terrace. The 5K course winds through The Domain’s pedestrian-friendly streets and green spaces\, making it accessible and scenic for runners of all abilities. The companion Kids 1K is a perfect introduction to racing for younger participants\, while the Fastest Dog in Austin contest adds a uniquely Austin twist that draws crowds and cameras in equal measure. \nRace Details\nThe Bun Run is a fall event typically held in late September. The Kids K starts at 8:00 AM followed by the 5K at 8:30 AM. There is no prize purse for the open division\, but the competitive field runs for $500 in prize money split between the top male and female finishers. Race-day and packet pickup registration is available. Proceeds benefit JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)\, with Schlotzsky’s having contributed nearly $500\,000 to JDRF since naming it their national cause in 2012. \nA Quirky Austin Tradition\nThe Schlotzsky’s Bun Run captures the playful spirit that Austin is famous for — a race that takes the competition seriously enough to offer cash prizes but remains accessible enough that costumes\, family strollers\, and dogs on leashes all share the course. The Domain start/finish provides excellent post-race dining options from the many restaurants nearby\, making it easy to extend the fun into a full morning out. \nWhy Runners Love It\nThe Bun Run is a rare breed of race that genuinely serves every category of runner simultaneously — the competitive racer chasing the cash prize\, the casual jogger logging weekend miles\, the parent pushing a stroller\, the dog owner who trained their retriever to run a 1K. September in Austin is the beginning of the transition out of summer heat\, bringing relief after months of brutal temperatures. The charitable cause (JDRF) adds meaning to every entry\, and the Schlotzsky’s brand connection means runners can count on some food fun post-race. \nRegister\nVisit RunSignup for registration information when the 2026/2027 event is announced\, or follow Schlotzsky’s Austin social channels for updates.

SUMMARY:San Juan Island Half Marathon
DESCRIPTION:The San Juan Island Half Marathon is a breathtaking destination race that showcases the stunning coastal beauty and rolling hills of one of the Pacific Northwest’s most iconic islands. \nCourse Highlights\nThe point-to-point course for the San Juan Island Half Marathon starts at South Beach inside San Juan Island National Historic Park and finishes at Jackson Beach\, just south of Friday Harbor. Runners will navigate a scenic route featuring three main climbs around miles 0\, 3\, and 9\, with a total elevation gain of approximately 900 feet. The course offers breathtaking\, jaw-dropping views of neighboring islands\, the Olympic Mountains\, and the Salish Sea. Aid stations are well-stocked and located every 2-3 miles\, though the race is cupless\, requiring participants to bring their own hydration gear. \nWhat Makes It Special\nCelebrated as the most scenic course in the Orca Running series\, this race offers a unique opportunity to run where the sea meets the sky. The event creates a community-focused atmosphere that supports local charities\, including The Whale Museum and the Island Haven Animal Sanctuary. Its destination status makes it a perfect excuse for a weekend getaway\, allowing runners and their families to explore the serene landscapes and vibrant culture of Friday Harbor. The point-to-point route ensures a diverse and engaging experience through one of the nation’s historic parks. \nRace Details\n\nLocation: Friday Harbor\, WA\nDistances: Half Marathon\, Kid’s Race\nNext Race Date: TBD — visit the official site for updates\n\nRace Weekend Tips\nIt is highly recommended to secure ferry reservations from Anacortes to Friday Harbor as soon as they become available\, as they sell out quickly for race weekend. On race morning\, participants should utilize the free shuttles from the San Juan County Courthouse\, as there is no parking at the start line. Packet pickup is typically available the afternoon before the race at a local venue in Friday Harbor or on race morning at the start line. Be prepared for the cupless nature of the event by bringing a reusable bottle or hydration pack. \nRegister\nReady to sign up? Visit the official registration page to secure your spot.

SUMMARY:Pints to Pasta Portland
DESCRIPTION:Course Highlights\nPints to Pasta is one of Portland’s most beloved road races\, offering a beautiful and fast point-to-point course through the heart of the city. The race starts with a dramatic crossing of the Broadway Bridge before dropping onto Naito Parkway along the west side of the Willamette River. Runners cross the Morrison Bridge and finish at OMSI (Oregon Museum of Science and Industry) on the east bank. The course showcases Portland’s iconic bridges and riverfront in a single exhilarating outing. \nRace Details\nOriginally part of the Hood to Coast Race Series\, Pints to Pasta offers the 10K and half marathon distances. Free shuttle service transports runners from the finish area near OMSI to the north Portland start\, making logistics seamless. The post-race party is the event’s signature attraction — complimentary pasta\, salad\, and bread\, paired with Widmer Brothers beer and Barefoot Wine (ID required)\, served at the finish. Check RunSignup for confirmed future dates. \nWhy Runners Love It\nThe ‘run from beers to pasta’ concept is simple and brilliant — a satisfying morning run rewarded by a full pasta dinner and cold beer at the finish. The point-to-point route eliminates out-and-back monotony\, and the bridge crossings offer spectacular elevated views of Portland’s downtown and the Willamette. It’s one of the few races where the finish-line food genuinely rivals the course itself in participant satisfaction. \nRace-Weekend Tips\nUse the free shuttle from OMSI to the start rather than driving to the Broadway Bridge area. The race typically takes place in the fall — check RunSignup for confirmed dates. Come hungry; the pasta and beer combo at OMSI is one of Portland running’s most celebrated traditions. Wear a layer you can tie around your waist — temperatures can vary from start to finish on fall mornings. \nRun for the pasta and stay for the beer — check registration at RunSignup.

SUMMARY:Worst Day of the Year Run
DESCRIPTION:Course Highlights\nThe Worst Day of the Year Run takes place at McMenamins Edgefield\, the legendary Portland-area resort and entertainment compound in Troutdale\, Oregon. The course consists of 1.55-mile laps on packed gravel paths with short\, rolling hills and stunning views of the Columbia River and Mount Hood. Two laps make a perfect 5K. With optional chip timing\, runners can track their results while embracing the celebration atmosphere. \nRace Details\nHeld each February — the worst month for weather in the Pacific Northwest — this event gleefully celebrates the rain\, wind\, and cold that many runners dread. The race is limited to 1\,500 participants. Every runner receives a Columbia Sportswear winter hat\, finisher medal\, and access to a green-screen photo studio. The post-race party at Edgefield features homemade soup from McMenamins’ kitchens — the perfect recovery meal after a muddy winter run. \nWhy Runners Love It\nThe costume creativity at Worst Day of the Year Run is unmatched in Pacific Northwest racing. From absurdist rain-gear art installations to elaborate group costumes\, the event is as much a community celebration as a race. McMenamins Edgefield provides one of Oregon’s most unique venues — a sprawling historic poor farm turned hotel\, brewery\, and entertainment complex. Prizes are awarded in a raucous costume contest after the run. \nRace-Weekend Tips\nRegister early — this race sells out fast despite (or because of) its terrible weather. Embrace the conditions; a costume over your running gear is warmly expected and judged. The McMenamins campus offers on-site lodging\, multiple restaurants\, and a brewery\, making it easy to turn the event into a weekend getaway. Check RunSignup for 2027 registration dates. \nEmbrace the worst and run it anyway — register at RunSignup.
