It's as much fun for the audience lining the parade route as it is for the runners! We have made it a family tradition to go to this event because the runners all dress up and you never know what you will get to see and experience! Arrive early, take some chairs and some snacks and some chalk and games for your little ones to play in the street while waiting for the parade to start. And hey...you can also buy your little one some cotton candy or a toy from one of the traveling vendors!

Here's a blurb from their homepage:
What a FUN Run!
"How far will people go to be in a parade? If they're runners in the Starlight Run, the answer is 3.1 miles! And, with more than 4,000 runners projected for this year's event, the Starlight Run is definitely the largest fun-run in Oregon. It's also the most FUN fun-run, with participants vying not only to break the tape, but also to win prizes for best individual or group costumes."
