Rose City Track Club is proud to present the 7th annual Rose City Mile!

Gender Recognition and Inclusion: We believe that everyone has a place in the running community that is respectful, safe, and inclusive. To support individuals that do not identify as male or female, we have the categories of non-binary and "Prefer Not to Say." Individuals who select either option will be eligible for the non-binary awards category. For seeding purposes, non-binary athletes may enter either the Men's Mile or Women's Mile. Non-binary athletes in all events will be eligible for the non-binary awards.
