Hurricane Creek Half Marathon

Hurricane Creek is the eighth edition of the event hosted by Runners of the Sage in Joseph, Oregon, at Joseph City Park. The weekend offers three distances: a half marathon, a 5-mile, and a 5K, all on an out-and-back course. The Half is a challenging, scenic climb from roughly 4,200 to 5,100 feet, with the first 3 miles paved, the next 6 on dirt, and the final 3 paved, plus water stations around miles 3, 6.5 and 10.

The route showcases views of the Wallowa Mountains and Eagle Cap Wilderness. Proceeds support ongoing events; awards go to top male/female finishers in each distance. Pack for variable weather. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
