The Best Races events at Sutter's Landing Regional Park
These events take place at Sutter's Landing Regional Park in Sacramento on May 2, 2026. The program includes several distances and a family mile option, offered as in-person and virtual choices. Waves are used to limit the number of participants per start; waves are filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
Timing is optional. Participants may track time with smartphone apps and submit results for posting, or request assistance from coordinators. No timing chips are used. Race bibs are provided on the day of the event. Packets are not required for pickup because participant swag is shipped to the provided US mailing address; shirts are mailed the week of the race and a technical shirt upgrade is available for an additional fee.
Standard event swag includes a running t-shirt, a finisher's towel or giveaway, a finisher medal, a digital training pack, and an online certificate of completion. Virtual entries receive a training pack with digital tools and may submit results to receive a medal. The organizer offers invitations to local running clubs and maintains optional fundraising initiatives where miles logged after the race contribute to charity donations.
