Eugene is Tracktown, USA and center of the running universe.  As the birthplace and spiritual home of Nike, it was only fitting we had a fantastic turn out for our Human Race partnership fun run on 8-31-08.  At the Eugene Running Company we had runners and walkers covering distances between 3 and 19 miles, all to help support the three Human Race charities - World Wildlife Fund, The Lance Armstrong Foundation and Nine Million dot org. We had our Joe Henderson Marathon Team belting out a long run as training for the upcoming Portland Marathon, we had Baby Boot Camp moms running and walking with their babies, we had our familiar group of Sunday morning regulars and they were joined by nearly 100 new faces.  It was the day the whole world ran and we hope you did too!  By my count, we had at least three members of the canine race participating alongside the Human Race. 

For everyone that lives in Eugene, don't forget to come out Thurseday night and cheer on the Duck XC Teams in Alton Baker Park at 6pm.
