Starting at our monthly beach cleanup location near Saltwater Deck, this will be an out & back 5k on flat fast course. BE SAFE and watch for cyclists, dogs, beach goers, and fitness enthusiasts that use the path daily.

SPONSOR A KID: We want to send a group of kids to CIMI on Catalina Island, a ocean science weekend. Sponsor a kid, any amount and we will pool the funds to make sure a kid runs instead of you, earning his/her spot on the list to go to Catalina. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
