Deadstock Run Club
Portland, Oregon
Deadstock Run Club is a free, inclusive social run club meeting Tuesdays at 7:00 PM at Deadstock Coffee in Old Town Portland. It offers three distance options (1.5-mile walk, 2.5-mile run, 4.5-mile run) and welcomes all paces and abilities.
About This Club
Deadstock Run Club meets every Tuesday at 7 PM outside Deadstock Coffee in Old Town Portland, and it is completely free to show up. What makes it genuinely different is that they offer three separate options on the same night: a 1.5-mile walk, a 2.5-mile run, and a 4.5-mile run, so you are not choosing between keeping up or staying home.
Who It Suits
If you are a beginner, returning from injury, or someone who wants a Tuesday evening out that happens to involve movement, this setup works well because you can scale up or down week to week. If you are training hard for a race and need a structured workout with consistent pacing and a coach, this is probably not your primary training session.

What a Run With Them Is Like
You will cover waterfront and mixed terrain, which in Old Town means a mix of pavement and paths along the river. The pace band they describe runs roughly 5:00 to 7:30 minutes per kilometer, so there is real range within the running groups.
Walkers have their own dedicated route, not a modified afterthought. After the run, the group tends to wind down at Lobby bar for cocktails or head to Tope at The Hoxton for dinner, so the evening does not just end at the finish.
Your First Run
Show up to 408 NW Couch St at 7 PM on a Tuesday, that is Deadstock Coffee in Old Town. When you get there, pick the distance that honestly matches how you feel that night, not how you wish you felt.
Nobody is tracking whether you walked or ran, and choosing the 1.5-mile walk is a completely legitimate option, not a consolation prize. Coming alone is normal here, this is a social run club by design, and the post-run gathering at the bar or restaurant is specifically where people actually meet each other.

Common Questions About Deadstock Run Club
Do I need to register or pay anything before I show up?
No. It is free and there is no sign-up. Just be at Deadstock Coffee, 408 NW Couch St, by 7 PM on a Tuesday.
Can I walk instead of run?
Yes, the 1.5-mile walk is one of the three official options every week, not a fallback for people who could not keep up.
What if I am somewhere in between - not a walker but not ready for 4.5 miles?
The 2.5-mile run is there for exactly that situation. Three distances means you are not forced to choose between overdoing it and sitting it out.
Do they run year-round, or just in good weather?
They do not specify a weather policy, so if you are worried about a rainy Tuesday, check their social pages before heading out to confirm the run is on.
Is there anything happening besides the Tuesday night run?
There is mention of a Saturday morning meet at a Beaverton location, but details are limited - check with the club directly to find out if that is still running and what it looks like.
Where this comes from: Club details come from each club’s own channels (their site, Meetup, Strava and social posts) and are checked by hand. Group runs move, so confirm the meeting spot on the club’s latest post before you head out. Last updated July 2026.
