Team Red Lizard is thrilled to host the Stumptown Cross Country series in 2026! Whether you race as an individual or are part of a team, these races are always competitive and fun. If you feel like challenging yourself on grassy, uneven terrain, then make plans to join us this fall. These ain't no stinkin' road races!
For 2026, we have a 4-race series lineup:
9/26 Lents Park 5K both races
10/10 Mary S. Young 5K both races & USATF Oregon Open/Masters XC Championships 5K women/5K men

Women and men race separately at each venue. Women's races begin at 9:00 am, with the men's races beginning at 9:45. Course maps are available on the Stumptown XC Facebook group and on-site.
Non-binary athletes are allowed to choose whether they want to run in the men's or women's race and will be listed in the results as non-binary.
We are always looking for volunteers. Please contact Carre & Alison at redlizardrunningclub@gmail.com if you would like to volunteer.
