Portland Parks $5 5k Series

Portland Parks & Recreation began offering the $5 5k Series in 2012. These fun runs are a series of family-friendly 5k races that take place monthly May-October at parks throughout the Portland area. These events are perfect for all ages and abilities and are geared toward first time and less experienced runners.
