Race Information
The annual Reaching for the Cure Half Marathon, 10K, 5K, and Kids Run takes place at Irvine Valley College. Reaching for the Cure celebrates years of life-saving research dollars raised at this event in honor of pediatric cancer warriors, patients, and survivors everywhere.
Race Day Activities include packet pickup, race announcements, finisher medals, awards ceremony, exhibitors, food and musical entertainment; PCRF’s famous Kids Zone features petting zoo, bounce houses, obstacle courses, video trucks, face painting, attractions and more.
Voted #1 Best of OC Run/Race - this event has that feel-good-vibe dialed in. Whether you're a serious athlete, training for your first race, running for fun, or walking with your friends and family - what sets this race apart from the rest is how you feel when you cross the finish line.
Run Pick of the Month - Independence Day 5K & Firecracker Dash
2,000+ runners. 31st annual race happening on July 4, 2024.
The Village Runner Independence Day 5K is an annual community classic that happens on the 4th of July in Redondo Beach.
Runners can expect chip timing, age division awards, cash prizes to the top three overall male and female runners in the 5K run, and a pretty great pre-race costume contest!
We like that the course is an out and back (you can try and spot your friends). We also like that a portion of all registration fees directly benefit the Redondo Beach Educational Foundation and other local schools.
