About event
**Run info below, but FIRST:**
**Join us for FOOD DRIVE NOVEMBER:** This November, Northwest Trail Runners is hosting a Food Drive to support Sunshine Division and help fight food insecurity in our community.
Throughout the month, we’ll be collecting non-perishable food donations at our Tuesday and Saturday runs. Look for the donation barrel (provided by the Sunshine Division) at each run — every item makes a difference! Requested items include:
* Canned meats
* Peanut butter
* Boxed dinners
* Canned vegetables & fruits
* Canned beans
* Pasta sauce
Monetary donations are also welcome — checks payable to *Sunshine Division*.
Let’s come together on the trails and offer to lend a hand to neighbors in need. Learn more about the Sunshine Division’s impact at [sunshinedivision.org](https://sunshinedivision.org/)

This mostly road run starts at Willamette Park, and works in a little bit of trail at George Hines park, before continuing on the Terwilliger Trail. We then make our way under the OHSU Tram, before making our way back to the Willamette Park Waterfront Greenway, and then to the finish. This is a mostly road run, and there will be lots of stops to keep everyone together! Bring a headlamp!
