Recently, Mackenzie held our fifteenth annual Holiday Run and Walk.

Folks set off at 5:30 am sharp from our Portland office for a 2.5 mile loop along the Willamette River waterfront then meet back at the office for cold and hot drinks. The ambitious then set off for another loop!

The tradition began in 1974 with our founder, Tom Mackenzie, participating in the Ferguson Murphy Run that would start at the Multnomah Athletic Club every Christmas Eve morning. 

Mackenzie embraced this early morning, festive activity and started a run employees could participate in.
