Coffee Lovers Run 5K/10K/13.1 SAN DIEGO 2026

The Coffee Lovers Run in San Diego takes place in January, offering 5K, 10K, and half-marathon distances, plus a Family 1 Mile Fun Run. It is organized as a smaller, private group run with capped waves rather than a single large field. Runners and walkers of all paces are welcome; participants under 18 require a guardian. A virtual option is available if in-person waves fill, and an eco-registration option allows participants to forgo the shirt. The coffee theme is straightforward: the event is for coffee enthusiasts and includes a race shirt unless the no-shirt registration is chosen. Timing is optional, allowing participants to use apps like Strava, RunKeeper, or Nike Run, submit their results online, or request assistance from coordinators. The format requires minimal gear and setup, with coordinators available and local run club invitations extended after registration.
