Happy Mother's Day 5K, 10K, 15K and Half Marathon at Woodley Park
A Better World Running stages a multi-distance road event at Woodley Park in Lake Balboa, Van Nuys on May 9, 2027. The event offers chip timing, custom finisher medals, age group awards available for pickup at the race, and live results and free photos linked to bib numbers.
The course is an easy out-and-back and looped layout described as flat with one small hill about 0.6 miles from the start. Distance formats include:
- 5K : 1 loop
- 10K : 2 loops
- 15K : 3 loops
- Half marathon : three 4.36 mile loops
There is an aid station on every loop supplying water cups, water bottles, Gatorade cups, and Gu gels. The event is an open course; participants are asked to be courteous to pedestrians, runners, and cyclists and to use the pedestrian tunnel rather than crossing Woodley Avenue.
Logistics note: parking is available in the Woodley Avenue and Victory Boulevard parking lots with additional overflow parking across Woodley Avenue near the golf course. A time limit of 3:15 applies to the event; participants needing additional time may contact the organizer. Transfers are permitted through the organizer and the event maintains a no refund policy.
