Graniterock River Run

The River Run is back for 2021 with a family-friendly event that will be fun for everyone! This year you will be able to run or walk a 5K distance.  We have recently added a 1 mile Fun Run category for individuals or families.  The 1 Mile Fun Run will not be a timed event.

The River Run 2021 describes the unique experience that awaits as you meander through a working sand and gravel quarry.  The events take you inside the Southside Sand and Gravel Quarry to see the working quarry site, the banks of the San Benito River, specialized equipment that processes the rock, and beautiful natural surroundings. The River Run benefits the YMCA of San Benito and begins at 8:00 a.m. AUGUST 28, 2021 at 5632 Airline Highway, Hollister, CA 95023.

The recent opening of California has allowed us to remove many of the social distancing requirements that were put in place at the time  we opened registration.  We will be removing the requirement to select time slots for the event.  There will be one group start for the 5K event.  We will provide updates  to the schedule as we get closer to the event.
