Oakland Cubs Cozy Cub 5K and Kids Mile Fun Run
The Oakland Cubs Cozy Cub event is a community fundraising race organized by a youth running team based in Oakland, California. The race supports the team's operations and the scholarship programs offered to its athletes. The organizers describe the team as committed to the Oakland community and to developing physical skills, character, resilience, and work ethic in youth.
The event is held at The Meadow in Joaquin Miller Park, near the intersection of Joaquin Miller Road and Robinson Drive in Oakland, CA 94602. The race starting area is only accessible on foot; a trail from the intersection leads down to the staging area, and race volunteers in yellow vests direct participants.
Distances:
- 1 mile kids fun run
- 5K trail run
Parking is limited; available spaces include the Joaquin Miller Ranger Station lot and parking along the north side of Joaquin Miller Road. Organizers encourage carpooling. AC Transit Line 31 serves the JOAQUIN MILLER & ROBINSON DRIVE stop; participants should check current bus timings. Rideshare options are noted as an alternative to reduce parking needs.
Packet pickup is scheduled for Friday 12/4 and Saturday 12/5 in Oakland, exact location to be determined. Prizes will be awarded to the top two male and top two female finishers in the 5K, and all participants will receive race giveaways. The event takes place rain or shine.
