The Davis Moonlight Run is a nighttime race in Davis, California, featuring a flat route that concludes under the stars. Beginning at Schilling Robotics, the course utilizes city streets and the town’s greenbelts, offering a run that feels more like an evening loop through Davis than a closed-off stadium event.
The event accommodates athletes with disabilities and benefits Cancer Champions, an organization supporting cancer survivors. Participants who finish earn a heavyweight cow-themed medal, a local detail fitting for Davis. The post-race gathering continues with music, snacks, beverages, complimentary sno-cones, and beer samples for those 21 and older.
