🚧🚨The much-beloved Midge Cramer path will be closed starting tomorrow October 5th and possibly through the end of the month while Benton County, Oregon (thank you!! 🙏) repaves the highlighted portion shown in the image between the fairgrounds and Bald Hill.

This is a popular running route for many, so please plan alternatives during this time. The Oak Creek and Reservoir parking lots are other options.

🌅 Rise & Grinds ☕️ fyi, for your October runs route planning 🍂

Heart of the Valley (HOTV) Runners is bringing the 2026 Trail Running Film Festival to Corvallis.

This annual film festival was designed to celebrate running as a universal practice to explore our collective and individual potential and pursue our wildest dreams.

We accomplish this by documenting the culture of trail running, supporting filmmakers and creatives, and hosting events that bring our community together.

We are committed to promoting inclusivity, adventure, wilderness, art, and diversity across the trail and ultra community.

The films will be shown on Friday, May 29 at The Majestic Theater (115 SW 2nd St, Corvallis, OR 97333) beginning at 6:00pm. Tickets are available online for $15 and at the venue when doors open at 5:30pm.
