Run Your Heart Out Half Marathon
The Run Your Heart Out Half Marathon is part of a multi-distance event held in Long Beach, California. The start and finish location is Alamitos Beach on Shoreline Drive.
The event offers four distances:
- Half Marathon
- 10 Miler
- 10K
- 5K
The courses use an open beach path shared with pedestrians and cyclists. The half marathon route is a combination of laps on two out-and-back courses: a 5-mile route run twice and a 5K route run once.
Organizers provide a water station along the course and an aid station at the finish line with water, electrolytes, gels, and fruit snacks. Race photos taken by the organizers are offered to participants for free.
Participants can pick up their race bibs on Sunday morning at the venue. There is also an optional early bib pickup on Saturday afternoon at Sports Basement Long Beach.
Parking is available in a lot for a fee or for free on the street. For the longer distances, participants may request an early start before the main event, though those starting early are not eligible for awards.
All finishers receive a medal. Awards are given to the overall first male and female in each distance. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
