Scandia Run

The Scandia Run provides fun for the entire family! Courses weave through the outskirts of Junction City into the beautiful Willamette Valley farmlands! If you’re looking for a flat, fast, road race the USATF certified 5K or 10K is for you! If you want to take your time and enjoy a gorgeous August morning the 4-Mile Walk is a great option. Kiddos can run alongside Vikings in the 400m “Run with the Vikings.” After your race, enjoy Junction City’s world-famous Scandinavian Festival.

The Scandia Run is one of the longest running road races in the Pacific Northwest! It was started in 1975 by the Junction City Parks and Recreation Department. The Scandia Run is now managed by Valley South Athletic Club. Proceeds are used to support the track and cross-country programs of Junction City High School & Oaklea Middle School.
