I Like Pie - Bend

I Like Pie Thanksgiving Fun Run, Bend Oregon

I Like Pie is a Thanksgiving morning fun run and walk held at Riverbend Park in Bend, Oregon. The event offers three untimed loop options so participants can choose a distance that fits their plans. Finish line activities include music, community gathering, photo opportunities, and pie, with gluten free options available.

All event proceeds benefit the Boys and Girls Clubs of Bend. The event is produced pro bono by the Cascade Relays Foundation and FootZone Bend.

Entries include a custom race bib, pie service, and an event beanie for the first 5,000 registrants. Children in strollers may join at no additional cost, though strollers do not receive a beanie. The event is dog friendly when dogs are kid friendly; handlers are asked to start near the back to reduce congestion at the start area.

Packet pickup is available at FootZone in downtown Bend before Thanksgiving and at the Riverbend Park start area on Thanksgiving morning. The organizers note that Riverbend Park parking will be closed for the event and list nearby alternative parking options. The event also includes the Perfect Slice Baking Challenge and provides information on registration policies, packet pickup, and transfers. Refunds are not offered because this is a fundraising event supporting local youth programs. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
