  • Pre's Trail-Review
    The goal of this column is to describe a route/location, and let you know in my opinion if it’s all it’s cracked up to be. So if you have a favorite running route, let me know by contacting ORRC at [email protected] and I’ll give it a try. Pre’s Trail, Eugene, OR The trail forms a kind of figure eight, and if you run the full loop it’s a little over 4 miles around, although you can add an out and back portion near the I-5 overpass that extends it to almost 6 miles. And what I like most is that it’s all a nice soft surface (bark dust/chipped wood) so even though it’s a trail, it’s the kind of trail I like (not technical at all and wide enough to run side-by-side), and I could run on it forever. However, if dirt trails aren’t your cup of tea, there are sections of the trail that parallel bike paths so you have your choice of surface for some portions. The only thing you have to worry about if you run on the trails is getting your shoes cleaned up afterward. Is it a safe place to run? I ran this trail on a weekend morning, and there were so many people that I felt very comfortable in terms of safety. However, if I was running in the evening, or early morning, I’d probably feel more comfortable running with a friend, simply because it can feel a little isolated in some areas (particularly near the I-5 overpass).

The decision overturned a ruling by City Planning Director Lisa Gardner, and it serves as vindication for the neighbors who have bat- tled to have more say in the arena project since the site was first targeted in 2003. “This should have been a conditional use permit process from day one,” said Jeff Nelson, former co-chair of the Fairmount Neighborhood Association.
