Recurring 10K races near Salem, Oregon

Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

Norfolk Land Trust Trail Race Series/Haystack Mountain Challenge
SUN OCT 4
The 12th Annual race series unfolds across the picturesque landscapes of Barbour Woods and Haystack Mountain, offering a challenging and scenic experience. This trail event provides special access to private paths for its grueling half marathon, alongside options that traverse Beech Hill and wind past the historic Killarney Bridge. Runners will navigate a diverse course featuring a mixture of single and double track, carriage roads, and a flat stretch of railroad bed. Expect intense single track leading to the summit of Norfolk's iconic Haystack Mountain Tower, descending on carriage paths and gladed wetlands like the Swamp Trail. This is a cupless event, and while dogs are not allowed on the course, finishers can enjoy a free slice of pizza and beverages from Norbrook Farm Brewery.
ORRC Best Dam Run - 10K
SAT OCT 10
The ORRC Best Dam Run is a point-to-point 10K in Estacada, Oregon, with separate starts for walkers and for runners or run/walkers on race morning. Participants take a bus about 6 miles east of town to the North Fork Lake start, then head back toward downtown Estacada, where the finish is located on 4th Avenue just off Broadway Street. The field is capped at 750 entrants, and the course closes at noon. The route begins at the east end of Faraday Road, follows the Clackamas River for much of its length, connects with Highway 224, and finishes near the post-race food and awards area at SE 4th Ave and Broadway. The initial 4.5 miles are on a private PGE road, and the course provides views of water, forest, geology, bald eagles, osprey, and waterfowl. It is USATF certified, with aid stations offering water and Gatorade at the start and around Mile 3. Overall awards are presented for walking and running, including open and masters divisions for male, female, and non-binary entrants.
The Great Pumpkin Run
SAT OCT 24
Eola Hills "No Hills" 5K/10K
SAT NOV 14
The Eola Hills "No Hills" 5K/10K is a road race held in November in Rickreall, Oregon, offering both 5K and 10K distances. The start is located at 501 S Pacific Hwy W, grounding the event in small-town Polk County rather than a large metropolitan area. The name highlights the primary appeal: participants can select a short or long distance without facing a demanding uphill course. While public race listings provide limited course specifics, one participant gave both the course and organization a perfect 5.0 rating, describing it as a race they greatly enjoyed.
Turkey Trot Fun Run/Walk - 1k/5k/10k
THU NOV 26
The Ann Arbor Turkey Trot is a Thanksgiving Day fun run and walk in Ann Arbor, Michigan, featuring a 5K and a non-timed Tot Trot 1K. The 5K is chip-timed, provides official results and award eligibility, and is suitable for families as well as runners aiming for a specific time. The 1K offers younger children their own short race, ensuring the morning is inclusive for all ages and running abilities. The event embraces the holiday spirit: participants often wear costumes, enjoy hot chocolate and cookies at the finish, and can take photos with Turkey Tom and Santa. Runners, walkers, and crawlers are welcome, reflecting the day's relaxed atmosphere. Each entry includes a finisher medal, and a portion of the entry fee benefits the ChadTough Foundation, with options for additional donations during registration.
St. Patrick's Spring Fling Trail Run
SAT MAR 20
The St. Patrick's Spring Fling Trail Run is a March race held at Alsea Falls in Oregon, offering half marathon, 10K, and 5K distances. Starts are staggered in the morning, with the half marathon beginning first, followed by the 10K, and then the 5K. Packet pickup begins after 8:00 a.m., and the 5K is limited to 50 runners. The half marathon provides an early start for walkers and slower runners needing more time to reach the mid-course cutoff. Participants unsure about reaching the checkpoint near mile 7 by 12:30 p.m. should request this early start on race day. Volunteers assisting with parking or registration receive a free race entry, sweep runners get an entry to the Marys Peak Trail Run, and a pint glass is included with each registration.

About 10K races in Salem, Oregon

Salem Miles By River And Hills

Salem, Oregon hosts 21 10K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals keep the easy running close to the Willamette River, with Salem Riverfront Park linking over to Wallace Marine Park and Minto-Brown Island Park. Minto-Brown Island Park gives you nearly 900 acres and 29 miles of trails, so Z2 never feels boxed in. You've got a 3-mile bark dust perimeter trail and a 2-mile loop through the middle for intervals or lunch miles. WVRR gives the scene a club backbone. Bush Park Thursday Nights in August Race Series feels like the anchor event, and Cherry City Half Marathon brings the longer crowd through Riverfront Park, Wallace Marine Park, and Minto-Brown Island Park.

Locals ride flat when they want base miles and point south or west when they want climbing. Salem Bicycle Club gives road riders a clear home, with Monster Cookie Metric Century and Half a Monster Cookie Metric Century sitting right in the local vocabulary. Willamette Valley Scenic Bikeway runs 134 miles north to south, and scenic backroads away from the city show off vineyards and orchards. South Salem Hills brings the gravel mood, and riders say get ready to climb. West Salem hills, Eola Hills, and Waldo Hills hold the harder work, while Minto-Brown Island Park and Riverfront Park keep the paths easy.

Late summer and early fall treat Salem well, especially when wine grapes hit peak ripeness and the valley still feels open for long rides. Summer puts Bush Park Thursday Nights in August Race Series on the calendar, and Cherry City Half Marathon gives runners that late-summer anchor. The weather can still show up drizzly, so locals keep the kit flexible and run anyway. Winter changes the rhythm more than the routes, because rain is heaviest in late fall and throughout winter. Locals shift toward steady Z2, muddy trail shoes, fenders, and shorter loops when October through April brings most of the annual precipitation.
