You’ll run a fast, flat run alongside the Willamette River at this race just outside Eugene, between the small nearby towns of Coburg and Harrisburg, at the annual late summer running of the Pacific Northwest Marathon, which also features a half marathon and a 5K that bills itself as the “last chance for Boston,” meaning it’s your last day to qualify for the Boston Marathon.
That’s because the race ends just four days before the deadline to qualify for the race, which for all intents and purposes means it’s your last opportunity — so take advantage of it if you’re running the full marathon!
