Imagine miles of sun-drenched coast, an inviting ocean, and perfect weather pretty much anytime of the year, and you’ll understand why the La Jolla Half Marathon, our San Diego 10K, and La Jolla Shores 5K are some of San Diego California’s most picturesque running races.
From start to finish these races offer runners a chance to experience the coast like never before. Discover the views from the summit of Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve as you listen to the sound of the ocean lapping the shore to help you keep pace.
Whether you want to run your first half marathon, step up from our 5K to our 10K, or run your first 5K, no matter which race you choose, you’ll have gorgeous views from Del Mar to the La Jolla Shores.
