Get ready for an unforgettable experience at the Run by the Sea on Sunday, October 5th, 2025, in beautiful Santa Cruz! This annual event, now celebrating its 10th year, invites runners and walkers of all levels to enjoy the stunning coastal bluffs of California's Central Coast. Participants can choose from three exciting race distances: a challenging Half Marathon, a scenic 12K run, or a family-friendly 4K run/walk.

Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Wilder Ranch State Park, runners will traverse mostly flat, packed dirt trails while soaking in panoramic views of the Monterey Bay and the lush meadows of Wilder Ranch. Keep your eyes peeled; you might even spot dolphins frolicking in the waves! Join us for a day filled with natural beauty, community spirit, and a commitment to supporting local youth programs. Don’t miss your chance to be part of this remarkable event!
