Need a reason to finish the grueling Hood to Coast race? How about a CBD massage?

Lazarus Naturals is the first-ever CBD sponsor of the annual Hood to Coast race that starts this Friday morning. Using our CBD Massage Oil, we will be giving out free 20-minute massages on upwards of 30 tables at the finish line.

We will also be giving out free samples of CBD water. Members of our team will participate in the race and we hope you can cheer us on!

Dylan Summers, our Interim CMO & Director of Government Affairs and Compliance, shared the exciting news this week on KGW show “Tonight With Cassidy”. Joining him is Adam Pasi, winner of this year’s “Portland’s Funniest Person” competition. Dylan brought several tinctures and balms to sample, but had to remind Adam that the balms are not edible.

About Hood to Coast

The 200-mile race starts at the parking lot of the Timberline Lodge ski area on Mount hood and ends in Seaside. Teams will travel along Highway 26 and Highway 30 for portions of the race. The race is 36 legs and each team member runs three, with each leg lasting 3.4 to 7.8 miles. Each team is allowed two vehicles no larger than a standard van.

Approximately 12,600 runners on 1,050 teams of 12 will participate part in this year’s action. The team limit is filled and has been on opening day of the lottery for the past 21 straight years.

For a less intense challenge, walkers can participate in the Portland to Coast Walk. This walk starts in downtown Portland instead of Mount Hood.

In addition, the race raises significant funds each each year for worthy charities. This year's race yields $900,000 for the Providence Cancer Institute.

In his role as the founding member and President of the Association of Western Hemp Professionals, he advocates with business allies across five states for hemp and hemp-adjacent operations.

From a humble start in farmers markets to the industry leader we are today, Lazarus Naturals was founded on the belief that CBD should be affordable, effective, and accessible to all.

Being vertically integrated means we oversee each step of the process, from seed to sale, so you know what you're getting. (Among 111 CBD companies recently tested, Leafreport found our labels to be the most accurate in the industry.) The Lazarus Naturals Assistance Program is at the heart of who we are as a company and offers 60% off to veterans, individuals on long-term disability, and low-income households. As the brand that's “Made to Work. Made for All.” we are proud to offer products that are vegan, kosher, and USDA Certified Organic. With cGMP, B Corp, and Leaping Bunny certifications, customers can rest assured we'll never place profits over our purpose, our people, or our planet. ...
