Beaverton Half Marathon
The Beaverton Half Marathon is a multi-distance road and trail event that starts and finishes on SW Gemini and SW Nimbus Ave near Portland Running Company in Beaverton. Distances offered include:
- Half Marathon
- 10K
- 5K
The Half Marathon and 10K share the first 6.21 miles of the course. The 5K crosses Hall Blvd and is an out-and-back with a turn-around on the Fanno Creek path. Half marathon runners return to the start/finish area after the first loop and then continue for a second loop. Recent course changes were made to reduce congested road crossings and to use more of the Fanno Creek Path.
Walkers are welcome. The course is open for four hours. An early walk start is available for half marathon participants who expect to move at 15:00 minute miles or slower; that early start is untimed and walkers must follow normal rules of the road. When on the Fanno Creek Trail, participants should stay two-abreast and keep to the right.
Race logistics include packet pick up on the Friday before the event at Portland Running Company and additional packet pick up at the start/finish area on race day. Parking is free in the surrounding business park but not at Portland Running Company. Gear check is provided near the start/finish. Results are updated in real time and finish text alerts are available for entries with a cell phone number. Ribbons are awarded three-deep in age groups from 14 and under through 80 and over. Strollers and dogs are not allowed on the course. The event does not offer refunds. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
