Thanksgiving Races

Our towns’ busiest running week of the year spanned the entire past week. It brought out more than 3400 race finishers between Sunday’s Runs to Stay Warm and Saturday’s Friendsgiving. Many of ours are listed here (and I might have missed some in all these results).

If you haven’t already run enough in recent days, we’ll have five- and 10-mile options on Sunday from the Eugene Running Company.
