Fall Foot Races

Fall Foot Races is a race day in Bend, Oregon, featuring four distances: the Fall Foot Half, Bigfoot 10K, Fleet Foot 5K, and Little Foot kids run. The half marathon begins at the Cascade Lakes Welcome Station and concludes at Riverbend Park. The shorter races offer participants a way to join without completing 13.1 miles. CORK and Run Bend collaborate on this event, held on a fall Sunday in Central Oregon. The half marathon begins with a significant descent, losing approximately 500 feet of elevation in the initial miles along a paved bike path before connecting to the Deschutes River Trail. It then proceeds through the Old Mill district, circles First Street Rapids via a recently constructed pedestrian path, and finishes with a relatively flat second half. The series combines newer events, such as the half marathon and 5K, with the Bigfoot 10K and Little Foot kids run, both recognized as among Oregon’s oldest races.
