    Founded in 2012 by four friends passionate about running and Portland’s natural beauty, Stumprunners has grown into a welcoming crew of around 30 members who explore the city’s trails together. Centered on community and mindfulness, they embrace the practice of forest bathing to connect more deeply with nature during their runs, often venturing through Forest Park’s Wildwood and Leif Erickson trails. Meeting regularly at Dragonfly Coffee House, the group fosters inclusivity by welcoming runners of all levels and building friendships that extend beyond running into Portland’s vibrant food and drink scene. Their commitment to preserving local trails is reflected through collaboration with organizations like the Forest Park Conservancy. With Portland’s mix of urban energy and lush green spaces as their backdrop, Stumprunners embody a grounded, supportive spirit that enriches the city’s diverse running culture.
