Wood You Rather

Forest Park, United States • 3 May 2025

Wood You Rather is a unique checkpoint running event organized by Go Beyond Racing, taking place in Forest Park, Portland. Unlike traditional races, participants receive a map with ten highlighted checkpoints and must choose their own routes to collect as many as possible within a 2.5-hour timeframe. Runners can compete solo or form teams of up to six members, with the fastest average time and most checkpoints determining the winners. The event emphasizes strategy, as participants decide whether to take shorter, steeper trails or longer, flatter ones. Each finisher receives a mug, and there are prizes for top performers.
