Stumprunners Finding Forest and Community on Portland Trails
Stumprunners began in Portland's heart in November 2012, when four friends decided that trails belonged in their weekly routine. They wanted to run among the city's ancient trees, connect with each other, and build something that lasted. Today, around 30 runners of all levels gather every Saturday morning at Dragonfly Coffee House before heading into Forest Park to tackle the Wildwood and Leif Erikson trails. The crew runs for the trees, the trails, and each other, with social connection and mutual support woven into everything they do. Post-run plates and pints are part of the deal, too.
