Alameda Island Running Festival

For 2024 the Island running festival will consist of 3 full days of racing. Friday night will begin the weekend with Mile races and Mile relays, and packet pick-up for the Saturday and Sunday event. 
Saturday will be the Island 10 Miler followed by the Family Fun Run. And Sunday we will have the Half Marathon, 10k and 5k events. 
The entire festival will take place on the beautiful grass area across from City Hall West, located at 950 West Mall Avenue. The Health and Wellness expo presented by Alameda Health Systems will be on Saturday and Sunday. There will be a beer garden, upgraded VIP experience and kids zone with spectator food.

Race Timing and Restrictions:
the Island Running Festival is a chip-timed event.  Participants can run, jog or walk the entire course. 
Jogging strollers are permitted but are asked to start in the back of the pack.  Wheelchair athletes are permitted but due to safety concerns and street closure restrictions cannot travel faster than the fastest runner.   No bikes, scooters, skateboards or other wheeled vehicles are allowed. Dogs are not allowed on our race courses.  We love dogs, but there are those who are not so comfortable around them and there are also dogs that are uncomfortable around hundreds of other people, therefore NO DOGS ALLOWED on the course or at the finish line.

We can always use volunteers and it takes the support or our community and friends to make these events successful. if you are interested in learning more visit our website and volunteer support page
