Nov 16, 2008 3 Butte Butt Buster Fun Run. This fun run will start and finish at Fleet Feet and will take you on a tour of Bend's 3 main buttes: Overturf, Pilot, and Awbrey. It's 13.5 miles long with 1,700' of climbing and descent. So it's not easy, but it's also not a race. It will be a fun run to do with some of your running buddies and your dog. Not quite up for all 3 buttes? Don't worry, there will be shorter options. Regardless of how many buttes you decide to conquer, rest assured, you will be a stud after completing this run. For more info, contact Sean at Fleet Feet, 389-1601 or sean@fleetfeetbend.com
Nov 22, 2008 COCC Turkey Trot 10 a.m. 3 mile run or walk $8 or free for COCC/OSU students. Registration is on the day of the race in the Mazama Gym at 9 a.m.
