Jeepers Creepers Marathon

The Jeepers Creepers Marathon returns for its fourth annual edition in Santa Clarita, California. The event is held at Heritage Park and utilizes the Santa Clarita bike path system. The course consists of 100% bike paths, ensuring a route free from automobile traffic. The marathon course is USATF certified (Cert #CA23032TEB) and features a terrain described as gentle rolling hills.

Available distances include:

  • Marathon
  • Half Marathon
  • 10k
  • 5k

The event operations follow a cup-less water station policy to improve safety and reduce environmental waste. Using foot pedal units, runners dispense water into their own reusable containers. Participants who do not have a container have the option to purchase a reusable cup during packet pickup. The marathon distance has a seven-hour time limit.

Participants receive a variety of branded items, including a custom sublimated tech shirt, a runner's hat, a finisher medal, and a reusable tote bag. Post-race activities include a community expo where finishers are provided with a plate of street tacos. The event also features a costume contest, with prizes awarded for the best spooky or Halloween-themed attire.

Awards are presented to the top three overall male and female finishers in each race distance. Medals are also provided for the top three finishers in each age group and the top three teams in the team competition. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
