Bend Trail Series

Bend Trail Series

The Bend Trail Series is a four-race trail running series held at different trails in Bend, Oregon. Each race covers a different course, with distances that range from 4 to 7 miles. The Series takes place on Thursday evenings across four dates in 2026: April 16, May 7, June 18, and July 16.

Series registration is for all four races; online registration for individual races is not offered. Single-race entry is available on-site at each race for a fee of $25 cash. Registration for the Series was closed on January 1, 2026.

Runners who participate in at least three races are included in the overall Series standings. Awards and recognition are given to Series men, woman, and non-binary podium finishers as well as age group winners. A post-Series gathering is held immediately after the final race where awards are presented, a raffle is held, and beer is served.

Maps for each route are posted the Monday before each race on the race website and on the event Facebook page. The event is produced by Go Beyond Racing, an organizer that runs over three dozen trail races per year and states commitments to racer safety, aid stations, volunteer support, event donations, and environmental impact reduction.

Cancellation policy: cancellations more than 30 days before a race receive a 50 percent credit toward a future Go Beyond Racing event, usable within 365 days and not transferable. Cancellations 30 days or less before a race receive no credit, refund, or transfer. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
