California Classic Half Marathon
The event is a multi-distance running event in Fresno based at Chukchansi Park and Chukchansi Stadium. Half marathon and 10k courses run through Fresno Chaffee Zoo, including Sea Lion Cove, African Adventure and NEW KINGDOM OF ASIA, and finish along home plate inside Chukchansi Stadium. The 10k start is inside Roeding Park and participants are shuttled from Chukchansi Park to that start. The 5k route runs through Downtown Fresno and does not go through the zoo; it also finishes along home plate inside Chukchansi Park.
Distances offered include:
- Half Marathon (13.1 Miles)
- 10k Run (6.2 Miles)
- 5k Run (5K)
- Classic Virtual Run (virtual)
- Wheelchair Half (13.1 Miles)
Virtual runs are completed independently on the participant's own course and schedule; virtual entrants are not eligible for awards, their results are not official and are not posted, and event shirts and finisher medals are mailed within two weeks after the event. 10k and 5k finishers receive the same amenities as half marathon participants, including a custom finisher medallion. The event marks its 15th year and the half marathon is a 20 point race in the CLASSIC Runner of the Year Series. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
