Race Route Info The Komen Portland Race for the Cure® begins and ends at
Governor Tom McCall Waterfront Park, along Front
Avenue/Naito Parkway in downtown Portland (see map below).
There is an event for everyone - from the recreational walker
to athlete-in-training to weekend warrior! The 5K routes cross
the Willametter River via two scenic bridges and the one-mile
walk also skirts the river.
Help us reach this year's goal of raising $121 per participant by
asking 11 people for just $11. That could result in over $4 million in
funds for eradicating breast cancer as a life-threatening disease. It
can also provide one potentially life-saving mammogram for someone in
our community. Use the tips below and the
pledge form to get started. If you are a part of a team, you may
raise pledge donations for your team and still qualify to receive an
individual fundraising award.
