Our Story

Littlewing Athletics is a unique elite running club based out of beautiful Bend, OR. Littlewing athletes, whose events range from the 800m to the ultra-marathon, are striving to make the podium at US championships and earn spots on US Worlds and Olympic teams.

What is different about Littlewing? We believe first and foremost in a culture of health. Health of body, health of mind, health of spirit. We believe that enjoying the process is key to achieving goals, and that patience is a core requirement to long-term success. We believe that results come when athletes are happy, self-motivated, and connected to community. We believe that growth always comes from within. Our goal is to maximally support athletes in achieving their potential in running, while also fostering self-growth.

Littlewing is committed to serving the Bend sporting community through service and engagement, and to advancing access to sport and health for all communities, especially to those who have been historically excluded.

Littlewing was founded in 2013 in affiliation with Oiselle and established as a 501c-3 training group in 2019.
