Put on your Groovy-est costume and run a 10k or 5k around the beautiful downtown Portland waterfront at sunset!!  Then get ready to party and dance after the run.  Enjoy Hoplandia beer, eat delicious chili from Portland Kettle and groove the night away with groovy music.  Finish the night to the beats of the drummers from Portland’s own Aikya Drum and Dance Circle. Groups of 6 or more contact highestgoodevents@gmail.com and we will get you set up.  All proceeds go to a great cause (check it out below--its for our mom!) and this race is a Portland family organized race (three adults with 5 kiddos among us!).
