💘 About the Event
Welcome to Camp Heartbreak, where love stories end in sprint finishes and Cupid’s arrows miss… on purpose. 💀
They say heartbreak hurts — but here, it burns calories.
Join us for Run If You Dare, a Friday-the-13th Valentine’s race that mixes romance and ruin under the moonlit shoreline of Long Beach. Whether you’re running from your ex, chasing closure, or just here for the medal and the music, this night’s for the fearless and the heart-strong.

🩶 Course Info
Your journey begins beneath the glowing CaliFlow arch at 5400 E. Ocean Blvd, tracing a flat, paved path along the waves — scenic, fast, and a little bit sinister.
Each turnaround hides a “Camp Heartbreak” surprise — maybe a runaway Cupid, a rose-covered machete, or a love letter gone wrong.
Half Marathon: 3 × 4.36-mile loops
10K: 2 × 5K out-and-backs
5K: 1 loop
Every station features glowing course markers, cheering “counselors,” and enough good vibes to heal even the most tragic of love lives.
🔥 The Vibe – Totally Camp CaliFlow
Think Valentine’s Day Massacre meets Glow Run Rom-Com.
We’re talking camp signs, flickering lanterns, red lights, and finish-line slow jams.
Whether you come solo, with your sweetheart, or as a crew of heartbreak survivors, one thing’s for sure — you’ll leave with a full heart and maybe a few goosebumps.
Because at CaliFlow Runs, we don’t fear Friday the 13th.
We run right through it — in style, with heart, and with a whole lot of glow.
✨ Not just a race. Join the movement.

🏅 Epic Medals & Custom Swag
Each race features custom-designed medals, vibrant bibs, and exclusive CaliFlow gear you’ll actually want to wear.
🎶 Finish Line Festivals
We keep the energy going with our finish line festivals — complete with a live DJ, photo zones, games, and so much more. It’s not just a race; it’s a vibe.
💧 We’ve Got You Covered
Stay hydrated with multiple water stations, and cool off at the finish line with frozen treats, fresh fruit, and plenty of post-race refreshments.
🌟 A Race for Everyone
Whether you’re chasing a PR, walking your first 5K, or just soaking in the coastal views, CaliFlow Runs is for YOU. Our events are designed for all paces, all ages, and all levels.
👟 Year-Round Events
From holiday-themed runs to our Full Moon Series, we keep the good times (and good vibes) rolling all year. Find your next favorite race and join the movement.
From Start Line to Finish Vibes
Our courses are open-pathway routes — meaning they’re held on pedestrian-friendly trails like beach paths, park loops, and river trails. They’re car-free, safe, and full of good energy. Whether you're racing for a PR or strolling in costume, you'll be on a scenic route with no traffic to worry about.
👟 Because these are shared public spaces, you may pass by other walkers, joggers, or casual strollers who didn’t sign up — but that’s part of the CaliFlow charm. Just stay aware and respectful of those around you.
🎧 Pro tip: Save the Metallica for your post-race drive. Please keep the volume low enough to hear voices and instructions around you.
