The Holiday Dash 5K is a fun and festive race along the scenic Eastern Prom Trail!
Each year, hundreds of runners and walkers participate in this one-of-a-kind 5K. All proceeds benefit Portland Trails and the 70+ mile trail network that is transforming Greater Portland. Costumes or festive outfits are welcome but not required. Just be sure to dress for the weather! We'll be running and walking through snow, shine, wind, or sleet. You'll receive a complimentary winter hat with your registration.

Can I dress up/wear a costume? Of course! Lots of participants do. We always welcome silliness!
Do I have to dress up/wear a costume? Not at all! Wear what you feel comfortable in.
Can I run or walk with my dog or stroller? No. Unfortunately, the race course is too narrow to safely allow strollers or dogs.
Can I sign up if I'm under 21? Yes! Because this year's event does not involve alcoholic beer, we are welcoming runners and walkers of all ages to participate. But remember, no strollers allowed.
Can I volunteer for this event? Yes! Our volunteers help the event run smoothly at every turn. Click here to check out our volunteer opportunities.
Can my company sponsor this event? Yes! Please contact Lindsay Conrad at lindsay@trails.org for more information about sponsoring the Holiday Dash.
