Boring Marathon, Half-Boring Half Marathon & Constantly Boring 8K

The Boring Marathon, Half-Boring Half-Marathon, and Constantly Boring 8K will start and finish at Boring Station Trailhead Park in downtown Boring, Oregon. Parking will be at Boring Middle School and surrounding neighborhood. Please use SE Wally Rd and SE School Ave to reach parking after 6:15 am, as runners will be crossing SE Dee St. The three races are all on the Springwater Trail, out and back, with the marathon having a few side detours to take in some local neighborhoods. The marathon mainly follows the Springwater Trail into Gresham and then continues onto a portion of the Gresham-Fairview Trail to Division Street before returning to the Springwater Trail, heading further west for a few more miles, then turning and heading home to Boring following the same route. The Half Boring Half is an out-and-back on the Springwater Trail. The same goes for the Contantly Boring 8K, which never really leaves the Boring area, so truly is constantly Boring. 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.

Limit – Marathon is limited to 130, Half to 220, and the 8K to 150.

Time limit – Walkers are welcome, but because we run part of the race along roads, we need to discontinue aid stations and traffic control after 6 hours. However, we will stay until the last runner/walker comes in and nobody will be disqualified by time. Early starts will be allowed – but are not required – for marathoners who expect to take longer than 6 hours.

Boring Sister City of Dull, Scotland – any resident of Dull, Scotland gets free registration (but you pay the travel).

The Boring Marathon is a USATF certified course and a Boston Qualifier.
