Run Love Run

Run Love Run returns to the picturesque Oregon Coast on February 13, 2027, offering runners three scenic trail options: a challenging 30K, an invigorating 15K, and a delightful 8K. Participants will traverse through South Beach and Newport's lush trails, enjoying breathtaking coastal views and vibrant local scenery.
The event celebrates the spirit of love in all its forms—whether you're running with your sweetheart or simply celebrating your passion for running. As you cross the finish line, expect to be greeted by a hand-blown glass medal from a local artist and a fresh red rose. The day concludes with a festive chocolate fountain and treats at the finish line, along with complimentary professional race photos.
Awards are given to the top three overall male and female runners in each distance category, as well as age group winners. Teams can also compete for special categories like Sweetheart, BFF, Mother/Daughter, or Father/Son teams, ranked based on performance percentages regardless of individual distances run.
The event kicks off early with packet pickup at 7:00 AM and the first race starting at 8:00 AM. An awards ceremony wraps up festivities by 11:30 AM. Add to your Valentine’s weekend experience by donning heart-themed costumes or matching outfits, making it a day of joy and camaraderie on Oregon's beautiful coastline.
For those who want to be part of the event without competing, volunteering opportunities are available at aid stations, course marshaling points, packet pickup areas, and finish line support. Join Ardor Adventures for updates leading up to this heartwarming celebration in Newport.
