This month Lake Oswegans get to experience two rare events—the only blue moon of the year and the city’s first Blue Moon 5K Adventure Run to celebrate it. Participants who register by this Friday, July 17, will be guaranteed t-shirts.

The course takes runners along 3.1 miles of the rolling hills of Luscher Farm as they tackle 13 obstacles which include:
•tire run
•walk the plank
•hurdles
•wall climb
•hay pyramid
•trench crawl
•slip n’ slide
•tire crawl
•trench rope climb
•balance beam
•hills of torture
•mud pit
•soak n’ run

There’s a reward at the end, besides bragging rights. A barnyard party is planned complete with music, food, drinks and vendor booths. Registration is open to ages 14 and older. Cost is $35/person on a four person team; $40/individual. Wave times are 6:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.

So what’s a blue moon? It’s the second full moon in a month, which doesn’t happen that often. The last one was August 31, 2012 and the next will be January 31, 2018. So sign up today, because this only comes around “once in a blue moon.”

Fortunately great homes come around more than “once in a blue moon” in Lake Oswego and I can help you find them. Give me a call at 503.939.9801 if you’re in the market.
