The highly anticipated Wildwood Trail bridge over Burnside is starting Monday and won't be done until the fall. Don't fret, we found an alternative using Fischer Ln. and a connector trail for those still wanting to do a Wildwood E2E in Forest Park.

Obviously, these are challenging times. Trail running can sometimes seem trivial right now, but when it's part of your livelihood, it can be a method of coping with the stress and anxiety of these pandemic times. Rules are constantly changing, so how do we know what's socially acceptable and of course, maintain a healthy environment? Gleb Velikanov sited the governer's office, leading experts in the medical field, and trail runners on what to do during the Coronavirus with his article on running through a pandemic. https://nwdirtchurners.com/trail-running-through-a-pandemic/

Trail Running Through a Pandemic
    The world seems to have ground to a screeching halt in the last three weeks. Blamo! We are living in a mild version of “I am Legend” or “The Walking Dead”, sans the danger of zombies, but with every bit of boredom and uncertainty of being confined to close quarters that was predicted b...

We have the largest cheese factory in the world. Let us not forget the cultural weirdness of Portland, or that we sp...

One of the wettest Januarys ever in the PNW made the Orcas Island 50k last week extra challenging to already one of the toughest Rainshadow Running events. Read Ethan Jordan's write up on how he endured through the beautiful but wet adventure run in his race report.

Swimming the Orcas 50k (2020 version)
    Disclaimer, this is a really hard 50k in the best conditions, 8,500 ft of climbing and descending with some technical difficulty thrown in for good measure. I think that’s part of Rain Shadows MO, hard races in beautiful places. I’ve never run a race with this type of gain and loss in such...
