Organiser's description

What better way to spend Fathers Day weekend than running with (or honoring) your old man? Participants can sign up for a half marathon, 10k, 5k, or kids race, so the entire family can join in on the fun! Run or walk along the flat Trolley Trail. The race will start and finish at the Elks Lodge in Milwaukie, OR (Please note - this is an open use trail system and does not close for our event).

Make sure you and your dad stick around for the post-race party! Each registration includes a free pancake breakfast, 1 free beer, local vendors, and groovy live entertainment. Come celebrate all the fathers, stepdads, uncles, grandfathers, or father figures who give us reasons to be grateful. The Grateful Dad is a wonderful addition to your Fathers Day weekend plans, and dad jokes are welcome every step of the way.
