The Oregon CattleWomen will host the second annual Ranch Run March 30th in Madras, Oregon! Secure your spot in the all family inclusive event that integrates the run and fitness community into the ranch community, sharing the real story of pasture to plate, the healthy benefits of beef and the people who produce it.
Fun facts about beef will be along the course with volunteers including local FFA supporting aid stations, beautiful finishers medal, t-shirt, swag bag, delicious Painted Hills Natural Beef burger and drink at the finish line celebration with music, and beautiful medals. Family members and support are encouraged to join in on the celebration with additional burgers and drinks available for purchase.
This one day event will feature a kids’ “Calf Dash” 1 mile run, a family friendly 5k, 10k, half marathon and for the first time ever, a FULL marathon. Immerse yourself in the genuine feel for ranch life, with a start/finish at the 40 acre feed facility at The Symons Beef Company. This beautiful feeder facility is utilized for education through out warmer seasons breaking down the barrier from consumer to product.
Runners will also take in the breathtaking views of the cascades and fields and scenic industrial plains of Madras, Oregon. The finish (BEFORE THE BURGER) brings runners throughout the “Gate way” area completing the first time foot race amongst the area. Some of your local grocery stores cary the products from the very ground you will be running by!
