Holiday Hustle 5K & 10K Livermore
The Holiday Hustle is an adventure-style running event held in Livermore, California. The event takes place at May Nissen Park, specifically at the picnic area next to the library building. Participants navigate through decorated neighborhoods using a map to locate various holiday displays.
The event offers two main distances:
- 5 km adventure course
- 10 km adventure course
The courses are designed as map adventures where participants find designated checkpoints marked as circles on a map. At each checkpoint, attendees answer simple multiple-choice questions regarding the holiday decorations at that specific location. The 5 km course includes approximately 20 checkpoints, while the 10 km course features 36 checkpoints.
Participants can choose to enter individually or in teams of one to five people. Divisions are available for men, women, and mixed groups, with age categories including Junior, Open, Masters (average age 40+), and Family. Because the event begins as darkness settles, the use of headlamps or flashlights is recommended for navigation.
The venue is accessible via public transit, with the Wheels 30R bus stopping approximately 0.5 miles from May Nissen Park. After completing the course, participants return to the finish area for snacks and socializing. The event proceeds in rain or shine conditions.
