  • Hood To Coast is a long distance relay race that starts at Mount Hood and continues nearly 200 miles to the Oregon Coast. Known as "the mother of all relays", it is the largest running and walking relay in the world, with 12,600 runners in the Hood To Coast relay and 19,000 total participants, including spinoff events like the Portland To Coast Walk and Portland To Coast Challenge Run Relay. Founded in 1982, Hood To Coast is extremely popular and has filled its team limit for the past 30 years, most of the time on opening day of the entrance lottery. The race is held annually in late August, traditionally on the Friday and Saturday before the Labor Day weekend. The course runs approximately 320 km (200 mi) (the course length changes by 1–5 km each year due to small changes made by race organizers) from Timberline Lodge on the slopes of Mount Hood, the tallest peak in Oregon, through the Portland metropolitan area, and over the Oregon Coast Range to the beach town of Seaside on the Oregon Coast. Teams of 12 runners take turns running legs along the course. Walking and running teams may choose to compete in the Portland To Coast Walk or Portland To Coast Challenge respectively, both of which are held in conjunction with the main Hood To Coast Relay and start near downtown Portland instead of Mount Hood.

  • 天涯海角接力賽（Hood To Coast）是每年一度在美國奧勒岡州舉辦的接力賽跑，活動的時間大約勞動節前的週末，也就是八月的下旬左右，傳統來說都會挑選週五和週六兩天舉行。這是世界上最長也是規模最大的慢跑馬拉松接力賽（估計每一年會有12600跑者，總參與人數超過18000人，當中包括步行接力挑戰者和高中接力挑戰者）。這個馬拉松接力賽，被許多跑者認為是“一生中必要完成的賽事”，所以此活動同時連續在過去的22年當中，都報名額滿。該馬拉松接力賽總里程約為320公里（200英里），實際的長度每年會有1到5公里左右不等的變化，因為地形或火災之類種種的意外發生，比賽單位會適度的調整接力的路線，但原則上是從俄勒岡州的最高峰的胡德山上的Timberline Lodge起跑，通過波特蘭都會區，最後會抵達俄勒岡州海岸山脈上海濱小鎮的海邊。 步行挑戰者和高中隊可以分別選擇參加“波特蘭至海岸步行”或“波特蘭至海岸高中挑戰”，這兩個賽事都同時與天涯海角接力賽進行，但是起跑的地點在波特蘭市中心，而不是胡德山。 (zh)
