This year features back-to-back events at Lake Chabot: a 5K and 13K on New Year's Eve and a 10K on New Year's Day, with a half marathon also scheduled. Each race is a separate event and requires its own registration. Participants who enter races on both days are eligible to earn the Brazen New Year Mega-Medal.
Registration fees vary by distance and by registration period; the event page lists tiered pricing for the NYE 5K, 13K, half marathon, and the remote entry. The event also highlights a fundraising connection with the East Bay Regional Parks Campership Program and provides a donation option.
