The Awesome 80's Run is a San Diego 5K and 10K held at Ruocco Park on Harbor Lane, with both races beginning in the morning. The shorter race is the Radical 5K Run/Walk, and the longer is the Tubular 10K Run, suitable for those aiming to race hard or those who prefer to walk or jog with friends. The course details are straightforward in the race materials, with the event focusing on all-level routes and an 80s theme rather than a technical challenge. Participants are encouraged to wear neon leggings, sweatbands, leg warmers, and other retro costumes, with 80s music playing throughout the event. Finishers receive a themed medal, and the day concludes with a post-race party featuring more 80s music. A virtual option is available for those who want the theme without attending in San Diego.

The ERS Season Pass is a trail-running registration package for Endurance Race Series events in the Colorado and San Diego areas. It functions as a season-long VIP pass: runners register for every ERS race in their selected market through a single transaction and package price, rather than entering each event individually. The Half Marathon Package is priced at $400 and includes six Southern California races: Carmel Valley 10 Mile, Black Mtn Half, Dixon Lake 10 Mile, Del Dios Half, SPV Half, and Coast to Crest 10K. Pass holders receive a VIP goodie bag, and participants completing five of the six races earn a Season Pass medal and an ERS-branded gift. The package also includes entry into the Legacy Program and the Championship Series, making it suitable for individuals intending to compete in the entire series rather than just one race.

Beim Carmel Valley Trail Race geht's durch den Gonzales Canyon Open Space. Start und Ziel sind im Solana Ranch Park in San Diegos Carmel Valley. Das ist ein kleines, jährliches Trailevent, auf 300 Teilnehmer begrenzt. Angeboten werden 5K, 10K und 10-mile Distanzen. Die 10K und 5K sind auch Qualifikationsrennen für die Meisterschaften. Die Strecke beginnt und endet auf flachem Terrain. Aber der Mittelteil hat genug Höhenmeter, damit sich die längeren Distanzen wie ein Berglauf anfühlen. Wer die 10K oder 10-mile läuft, wird auf einen Abschnitt stoßen, der als Puke Hill bekannt ist. Die 5K-Strecke bleibt flach für alle, die Trail-Luft schnuppern wollen, ohne großartig klettern zu müssen. Dieser Lauf ist übrigens der einzige Trail-Wettkampf in San Diego, der den Gonzales Canyon Open Space durchquert.

The Charlie Brown Christmas 5K/10K is a holiday run and walk held at Kit Carson Park in Escondido, near San Diego. It features a 5K, a 10K, and a Snoopy Dash for children 12 and under.

The Del Dios Trail Race begins at the Lake Hodges Boat Ramp Lot in Escondido, California. All race distances are run entirely on dirt. The event is known as the “Race of the Gods,” offering runners multiple options on the same rugged terrain: 50K, half marathon, 10K, 5K, and a 15K relay for three-person co-ed teams. This annual trail race, with over ten editions completed, focuses on lake-country trails instead of paved surfaces. The course features dirt service roads and maintained single-track. The amount of climbing varies by distance, and the terrain is technical enough to avoid feeling like a casual lakeside run. Participants start from the boat ramp area, heading out along Mission Road and the Coast to Crest Trail before returning the same way. The relay format is straightforward: each teammate completes the 5K course, and teams must consist of both men and women. The boat ramp area is closed to the public during the event, requiring runners, staff, and volunteers to use parking passes provided with race-day information.

The Kook Run begins under the Encinitas sign on Highway 101, sending participants south along the coast on Super Bowl Sunday.

The route traces South Coast Highway 101 in an out-and-back format, featuring views of the Pacific Ocean, surf spots, Cardiff State Beach, and the Cardiff Kook statue. The race commences with a gentle descent, incorporates moderate inclines on the return leg, and concludes through downtown Encinitas amidst cheering crowds. The weekend also features a costume competition and a Junior Kook Run for children aged 3 to 12 on Saturday morning.

The San Pasqual Valley Trail Race begins on Bandy Canyon Road in Escondido, located in San Diego County's wine region. Participants can select from 20-mile, half marathon, and 10K distances; some event listings also mention a 1K option. This trail race is set on vineyard roads, through orange groves, across grass fields, and along dirt trails, distinct from urban courses. Now in its tenth year, the race is designed for trail runners seeking a demanding course. The course starts on private land before proceeding along Bandy Canyon Road and dirt paths through San Pasqual Valley. Raptor Ridge presents the primary challenge: the half marathon route involves an out-and-back journey up and down the ridge twice. The ascent features switchbacks and offers expansive valley views. The landscape combines active wine country with citrus orchards, and local wine is available to runners at the finish line, continuing the regional theme.

A beer mile, featuring four 12-ounce beers and a chasing Beer City Beast, is offered alongside a half marathon, 10K, 5K, and 1-mile Beer Stroll in San Diego. Beer City Half San Diego is a beer-themed running event held at Tecolote Shores on Mission Bay. It includes morning race starts and tasting options connected to the Beer City Festival. The event is presented as a Valentine's Day run through Mission Bay, with a distinct Beer Tasting Only entry for those interested in the festival without participating in a race. The longer races are designed to run along the bay, while the Beer Stroll offers a straightforward 1-mile walk around Tecolote Shores. All participants receive a shirt, a Key to Beer City finisher's medal, and a custom tasting glass. The post-run festival provides unlimited tasting. The unique event is Beat the Beast: participants drink four beers over a mile and race, with elimination occurring if the Beer City Beast catches them. The day continues after the finish area clears, with a Shindig at Seek Brewing Company planned for the afternoon.
