About the Hunger Run - Columbia Pacific Food Bank
The course starts and finishes at the Columbia Pacific Food Bank and winds through downtown and old town Saint Helens. The route is on streets, so the surface is consistent underfoot. Several distance options make it accessible to a range of paces, and the downtown setting means there is something to look at along the way.
Packet pickup and race-morning check-in are both available, so you have options if an evening pickup does not fit your schedule. After the race, vendors set up near the finish area, and the post-race gathering tends to stretch a while.
