ABOUT THE ROCK'N RELAY:
Great music, a beautiful urban course starting & finishing at the Amnesia brewery, running & walking with friends, beer (at the Amnesia brewery), and food...all on a beautiful Fall day--add a dash of Music Fest Northwest and you have a recipe for one of Portland’s quintessential events.

Now, in its third year, you are getting all that and so much more! With the addition of Music Fest Northwest, not only do you get a full day of healthy fun, you get a super-discounted bracelet into a 4-day Portland music festival. Music Fest Northwest is the premier music festival in the area, attracting top musicians from all over the country. check out the lineup at wweek.com).

Each relay team consists of 4 members, each doing three 2.18 mile loops. The idea is to hand off to a new team member after every loop until all 12 loops are completed. Don’t have a team of four? Come do the individual 4.5 miler!

Bring the whole family for this fun-filled event...heck BRING THE WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD!

ABOUT THE KIDS EVENT:
There is no Kid's race for this event. However, there is a full day's worth of cool stuff for kids.  Face Painting, Caricature art, Balloons, bounce houses and more!

ABOUT MUSICFEST NW:
Sponsored by Willamette Week, MFNW began in 2001 as a homegrown replacement for the Texas-inspired North by Northwest music industry conference. This year we will feature a variety of national, international, regional and local acts all showcased at different clubs throughout town. While Musicfest NW will feature a fair amount of hip-hop and umpteen varieties of folk/singer-songwriter hybrids, the focus is squarely on rock music.

As part of your registration, you and your teammates will receive a huge discount on passes into the music festival.
