The Monument Mile is back for its second year - bigger, better, and now its own standalone event! Originally launched as part of the Oregon Trail Days celebration, this exciting race was created to give more members of the community a chance to get involved, get moving, and be part of something special.
Now evolving into an event of its own, the Monument Mile continues to build on that mission - bringing together runners, walkers, families, and spectators for a fun, high-energy experience. Whether you're chasing a personal best or just looking to soak in the atmosphere, there’s a place for you at the starting line.
Come be part of a growing tradition and help make year two even more memorable. Lace up, show up, and join the movement!
