Event Overview
The Coffee Lovers Run takes place in Sacramento at Sutter's Landing Regional Park. This event is organized as a small, private group run with a limited number of participants per wave to ensure a focused environment. It is open to participants of all ages and paces, including both runners and walkers. Participants under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian.
The event features several distance options:
- 1 Mile Family Fun Run
- 5 km
- 10 km
- Half-Marathon (21.1 km)
Logistics and Timing
The run is designed to be low-stress with no timing chips or specialized equipment required. While official timing is optional, coordinators are available to help participants track their times, or runners can use mobile apps to submit their results for the online leaderboard. Participants receive their race bibs on the day of the event.
Swag and Participation
The event provides a swag bag that is shipped directly to the participant's provided US mailing address, eliminating the need for a separate packet pickup. Most participants receive their items the week of the race. The swag bag typically includes a running T-shirt, a finisher's medal, and a finisher's towel or other giveaway. A virtual run option is also available for those who prefer to complete their distance at a location and time of their own choosing.
The organizers also manage a charity initiative where they donate one dollar to partner charities for every mile logged by participants after the race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
