Race Information
Join Outfront Endurance for a 5K run (3.1 miles) and walk through beautiful Alameda happening just before the historic 4th of July Parade. This run benefits a designated charity and Outfront Endurance is working closely with the City of Alameda on both the Parade and run so that they can bring a safe and fun experience for both runners and spectators.
The race starts at 1420 Park Street in front of Lauren’s Closet and follows the Alameda parade route ending at Haight and Webster. The scenic course is completely closed to traffic as you run past spectators waiting for the parade to start. Your run will finish just past the parade judging booth. Stick around and enjoy post-race water, Gatorade hydration, and plenty of snacks and beer donated by a sponsor.
