Super Hero Dash - Alamitos Beach, Long Beach, CA
The Super Hero Dash is a themed running event at Alamitos Beach in Long Beach, California, held on April 26, 2026. The event offers multiple distances that use out-and-back loops on the beach path and combines sections of a 5k route and a 5 mile route.
Distances:
- 5K - one lap of the 5k route
- 10K - two laps of the 5k route
- 10 Miler - two laps of the 5 mile route
- Half Marathon - two laps of the 5 mile route plus one lap of the 5k route
The beach path is an open course shared with other users. Participants are asked to keep to the right side of the path for pedestrians while the left side is for cyclists. Course turns are marked with chalk, runner turn signs, and flags.
On-course support includes a fully stocked water station and a finish line aid station with water, electrolytes, gels, and fruit snacks. Each station has a first aid kit and crew members trained in CPR. Bibs should be worn on the front of the shirt for timing and photography. A gear check is available at the registration tent; participants should bring their own bag.
Parking in the lot costs $2 per hour and street parking is free. Half marathoners and 10 milers may use the Passport app to pay for lot parking. All finishers receive a race medal. An early start may be pre-arranged for half marathoners and 10 milers only; early starters are not eligible for awards. Race results and photos are sent by email after the event and are also shared earlier on Instagram. Race photos are free. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
