Oregon Brewery Running Series

Lace up your running shoes for a unique 5K experience at the Oregon Brewery Running Series in Portland, OR, on November 14, 2026. This untimed fun run offers participants a laid-back way to enjoy a "3.1-ish" mile course, focusing on camaraderie, local scenery, and, of course, craft beverages. Typical race day conditions in mid-November bring highs around 54°F and lows around 41°F, with a 23% chance of precipitation, creating a brisk and potentially refreshing atmosphere for your journey.

What truly sets the Oregon Brewery Running Series apart is its commitment to starting and ending at one of Portland's celebrated local breweries, cideries, or taprooms. While the specific brewery for this November event will be a delightful discovery, you can expect a course that winds through scenic routes, though participants should be mindful that these are open courses, requiring adherence to traffic laws. Volunteer guides and arrow signs will ensure you stay on track. This series has built a reputation over more than a decade for being a family-friendly event where runners, walkers, and even those with strollers can participate.

The experience extends well beyond the run itself. Your registration includes a well-deserved craft beverage at the finish line, along with your choice of a collector's pint glass or a seasonal swag item. The finish line festivities are a highlight, often featuring live music, local food trucks, exciting giveaways, and engaging activities with partners and sponsors. A significant aspect of the Oregon Brewery Running Series is its dedication to giving back, with a portion of all proceeds directly supporting local nonprofit organizations. It’s more than just a race; it's a chance to be active, have fun, and contribute to the community.
