We understand not everyone is comfortable around crowds just yet! Get in on the action and participate virtually! It's simple! Sign up for the Virtual Run/Walk Option and complete your chosen distance anytime, any place prior to, or on, Sunday January 28th! You can run, walk, jog, do it on your treadmill, Peloton or, even on a skateboard! This is a great opportunity to get outside and explore a new part of your local community or city, visit your favorite trail or take a stroll down the beach.

Packet Pickup: You will be able to pick up your T-Shirt & Finisher Medal at our Packet Pickup Days (date to be determined!)

Let's get the obvious out of the way - Griffith Park & Runyon Canyon are great places with endless distance to run, walk, bike, jog, hike, forget the exercise and picnic, etc.! Keep in mind that if the trail you pick is longer, just time yourself until your reach the 5k or 10k mark! Or, if it's shorter, you can do it twice!
