From the Organizer
Rose City Track Club is proud to present the 9th annual Rose City Mile! Our mission is to provide a fun and accessible opportunity for runners of all ages and abilities to test their fitness. Join us on Saturday, June 13 at Franklin High School in southeast Portland for a track meet like no other.
We believe that everyone has a place in the running community that is respectful, safe, and inclusive. On race day we present awards in men's, women's, and non-binary categories. Participants who select either "Non-Binary" or "Prefer Not to Say" during sign up will be eligible for the non-binary awards category.

Online registration closes at midnight on Thursday, June 11.
Runners will have the option of registering for the Rose City Mile the day of the race for $38.50 (inc. $3.50 fee). Same day registration closes 50 minutes before the first heat in each section.
Rose City Mile would not happen without the generous support of our sponsors. Our event features 300 competitors of all ages, as well as many spectators cheering them on. We have four tiers of sponsorship available. To learn more, please check out our 2026 sponsor packet or email rosecitymile@rosecitytrack.com.
