From the organizer

IMPORTANT FOR 2026 : Damage to the Iron Horse trail from the December floods mean that no events are being held there in 2026, including the Iron Horse Half. Our course will be re-routed to adjust to this. Participants will be notified once our course adjustments are finalized. Thank you for your patience.

The Iron Horse Half Marathon will take place on August 30th, 2026 and is a half marathon starting at Olallie State Park and finishing in North Bend. It is a beautiful course that winds along the river and through the woods. PLUS IT'S 90% DOWNHILL!
