I Like Pie - Bend

I Like Pie : Bend

I Like Pie is a Thanksgiving Day untimed run and walk held at Riverbend Park in Bend, Oregon. The event offers family-friendly loop courses, on-course support, music, community activities, photo opportunities, and pie at the finish. Gluten free pie options are available. Entries include a custom race bib and pie; the first 5,000 registrants receive a custom I Like Pie beanie while supplies last.

The event raises funds for the Boys and Girls Clubs of Bend. Programs at the beneficiary organization serve youth ages 5 to 18 at two Bend locations and focus on academic success, healthy lifestyles, character development, and community involvement. Cascade Relays Foundation and FootZone Bend produce the event pro-bono to support that fundraising goal.

Practical notes about participation include that the event is untimed, the course selection is flexible, dogs are allowed when they are kid-friendly, and children in strollers can join at no additional cost though they will not receive a beanie. A baking contest called the Perfect Slice Challenge runs alongside the event. Packet pickup takes place at FootZone before the event and on-site at Riverbend Park on the day of the event.
