Coffee Lovers Run Santa Monica
The Coffee Lovers Run is a community-focused running event located at Palisades Park on Ocean Avenue in Santa Monica. This event is organized as a small, private group run with a capped number of participants per wave to maintain a relaxed setting. It is open to participants of all ages and paces, including runners and walkers. Participants under 18 years of age must be accompanied by a guardian.
The event offers several individual distances to suit different preferences:
- 1 Mile Fun Run
- 5 km
- 10 km
- 13.1 miles (Half-Marathon)
This run is conducted without timing chips to provide a stress-free environment. For those who wish to track their performance, timing is optional. Runners can use their own mobile applications to record their times and submit them manually for the online results board, or ask event coordinators for assistance on-site.
Registered participants receive a swag bag that includes a running T-shirt, a finisher's medal, and a finisher's towel or similar giveaway. The running shirt is shipped directly to the participant's US address. Race bibs are provided on the day of the event. A virtual run option is also available for those who cannot attend in person, which includes a digital training pack and the same finisher medals upon completion.
