The Boring Marathon, Half-Boring Half-Marathon and Constantly Boring 8K races will take place on September 11, 2022. We will be starting and finishing at Boring Station Trailhead Park. Most of the marathon and all of the half and 8K are on the Springwater Trail. The marathon begins at the park and heads out along the Springwater Trail (paved pathway) until reaching Palmblad Road. Here, marathoners
turn right and head up the hill and around a quiet neighborhood on a wide shoulder and sleepy streets for a few miles, then back to the Springwater Trail. Once back to the trail, they will turn right and continue to historic downtown Gresham next to Main City Park and beyond until intersecting the Gresham-Fairview Trail near Cedarville. Marathoners will take a right and follow the Gresham-Fairview Trail to Division Street, then turnaround and head back to the Springwater Trail. Here they'll turn right and run to a turnaround and then repeat this same route back to Boring. The half marathon and 8K are much easier to figure out, because they are both just out and back routes on the Springwater Trail (no side roads). All races support the cross country and track teams at Barlow H.S. and West Orient Middle School and all proceeds go directly to these programs. Boring Sister City of Dull, Scotland - any resident of Dull, Scotland gets free registration (but you pay the travel)!
