Earth Day Run

April 23, 2011: Keep It Running & Keep it Green!

Come celebrate Earth Day with the Earth Advantage Earth Day Run!

“I participated in last year’s Earth Day run and have been looking forward to this year’s event -- I couldn’t miss it. The route was good, and all the volunteers were very helpful.” -- Carol Craig

About the Event

With over 800 participants last year, we are sure to rock the Earth in 2011!  Our run is focused around people, healthy lifestyle living, community, and of course, our planet. This Walk/Run will start and finish at the Earth Advantage National Center in Tigard, OR. You can learn all about green building, certifications, and view product displays. Enjoy live music, organic beer, veggie burgers, and plenty of information booths focusing on health, wellness, and sustainable living. 

After the Race enjoy a cold organic beverage by Hopworks (21 and older) and delicious Veggie Burgers!
