Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

Talent Harvest Festival
SAT OCT 3
The Talent Harvest Festival is a Saturday morning 5K and 10K starting and finishing at Talent City Hall in early October. Runners select the 5K out-and-back course or the 10K. Children 18 and under participate for free. The 5K follows a path with gradual rises and drops. The 10K shares the initial section before proceeding to a more challenging, hilly route offering broad views. Talent Police Officers lead the runners at the start. Proceeds benefit SOR's Shoes for Student Runners Program. The first 200 finishers get a COOL Towel.
The Rogue Marathon
SAT OCT 10
The Rogue Marathon takes place in southern Oregon each fall. The full marathon follows the Bear Creek Greenway from Ashland to Medford. It is a downhill road race designed for speed, marketed as the fastest Boston Qualifier in Oregon. The event also includes a half marathon, 10K, and 1-mile kids run, catering to participants beyond those seeking a qualifying time. The main race begins early, accommodating serious runners aiming for a personal best and families participating in the shorter distances. The course’s primary advantage is its consistent downhill profile, maintaining a quick pace. findmymarathon.com ranks it first in Oregon and assigns it a PR Score placing it among the faster marathons in the U.S. The race features an $8,000 prize purse, custom shirts, finisher medals, live music, and post-race activities. Common Block Brewing contributes to the hydration, connecting the finish area to Medford. The event emphasizes personal bests, encouraging runners to declare, “I ran my Personal Best at the Rogue Marathon!”

Medford Training Notes

Medford hosts 4 10K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals run the Bear Creek Greenway when they want easy base miles, and the paved multi-use trail runs 20 miles between Ashland and Central Point through Talent, Phoenix, and Medford. Roxy Ann Park gives trail runners 15 miles of options, and Roxy Ann Peak stacks 800 feet of gain into the last half mile. The loop is 8 miles and hilly, running through oak groves and pine trees. Rogue Valley Runners has a Wednesday night group run from Hal’s shop. Southern Oregon Runners meets Tuesdays at 6 at Legends Cider in Talent. Tough as Nails, Rogue Run Marathon, Stagecoach Run, and Longest Day Mile anchor the calendar.

Locals ride the Greenway for steady Z2, then point the bike toward Talent, Ashland, Jacksonville, and Gold Hill when they want longer road miles. Siskiyou Velo sets the club rhythm with more than 200 members and rides that vary by distance and speed. Team Cycle Sport, Ashland DEVO, and RVMBA keep the scene busy for road, youth mountain biking, and singletrack. Flywheel Honey Badger starts in Talent, and the hills west of town bring logging roads and a well-earned pint after. Greensprings Honey Badger starts about 30 miles east of Ashland. Takelma Gravel Grinder runs a 57-mile Bold route with 6,000 feet of gain.

Medford trains well year-round, and September through May feels especially good for stacking base miles, trail days, and long rides. Summer brings Eastern Oregon-style heat, and the city averages 61 afternoons over 25°C and 11 afternoons over 30°C. Locals shift intervals early, keep Greenway spins honest, and save Prescott Park or Britt Woods for cooler windows. Winter stays milder than its latitude suggests because the Rogue Valley sits in a rain shadow between the Cascade Range and Siskiyou Mountains. Freezing temperatures happen on 64 mornings in an average year, so runners and riders still get out with layers from October 23 through April 23.
