Not like we need an excuse to run, but the Eugene Peace Run is a pretty good excuse. When the Dalai Lama visited Eugene in 2013 he inspired the creation of the Eugene Peace Run. The run is now coming up on its fifth year this Sunday, July 23. Participants have the choice to walk or run in a 5K or 10K course in Alton Baker Park. Proceeds from the run will benefit the Palmo Center for Peace and Education, a local organization that promotes a message of nonviolence. The Eugene Peace Choir will kick off the run with a performance at 8:30 am, followed by a talk from Tulku Jigme Rinpoche, a co-founder of The Palmo Center, on mindful running. The Fifth Annual Eugene Peace Run starts at 9 am after a performance from the Eugene Peace Choir and talk from Tulku Jigme Rinpoche at 8:30 am. It takes place at Alton Baker Park. For more info or to register, visit eclecticedgeracing.com. Registration is $15 for students, $20 for adults and FREE for one child under 12 per person. — Meerah Powell Blazing Paddles continues.
