The 5k is a single out-and-back, the 10k is two laps, and the 15k is three laps. The half marathon consists of three 4.36-mile loops, making the structure clear before race day.

The Cabrillo Beach 5K is a running event held at Cabrillo Beach in San Pedro, Los Angeles, on an October morning.

The course is flat, following the oceanfront from the Cabrillo Beach area near 3800 Stephen M White Drive. This makes it suitable for first-time runners, walkers, and those seeking a simple road race over a technical course. This event is noted as the first annual Cabrillo Beach Run. Standard race registration includes a T-shirt and finisher medal with packet pickup. Race-day registration closes before the events begin, with the 10K starting before the 5K.

Le Mean Girls 5K, 10K et Half Marathon transforme le LA River Path en North Shore High pour une course à pied sur le thème de la comédie à Canoga Park. Cette course fait partie des Jed and Ted's Excellent Races, une série dans la San Fernando Valley, axée sur les thèmes de films et séries télé des années '80 et '90. L'ambiance est décontractée, sans stress, loin de l'esprit d'un grand marathon de ville. Tu peux choisir entre un 5K, un 10K ou un half marathon. L'organisation, avec son thème, est pensée pour les coureurs occasionnels, les habitués du coin, et ceux qui cherchent une plus longue distance. Le parcours principal démarre à Canoga Park, en suivant le LA River path, qui est goudronné. Le 10K est un aller-retour d'environ trois miles de chemin continu, sans aucune traversée de route. Les participants du 5K empruntent une partie de ce tracé, tandis que les half marathoners font le parcours deux fois, avec une section en plus. Il y a des ravitaillements au départ et au demi-tour du 5K. Les décorations sont discrètes mais collent bien au thème, les médailles sont uniques pour chaque course, et la zone d'arrivée est décontractée, ce qui permet aux coureurs de discuter avec les organisateurs et de commencer à reconnaître les autres participants au fil du temps.

The Palos Verdes Trails 5K is a trail run and walk held at Ernie Howlett Park in Rolling Hills Estates. The route utilizes the Palos Verdes horse trails, avoiding paved roads and street crossings.

Funds raised benefit Strides in Recovery, a local nonprofit assisting individuals in Los Angeles County addiction treatment programs with goal-setting and physical conditioning, from 5K distances to marathons.

Before sunrise, runners begin on Shoreline Drive for the 2XU Long Beach Marathon, a 26-mile, 385-yard road race in Long Beach, California. The race weekend also features a half marathon, which can attract a larger field than the full marathon. The event originated in the early 1980s, paused during the 1990s due to financial difficulties, and then resumed under new leadership. Recent marathons have seen thousands of participants, a full half marathon field, and runners representing dozens of countries. The course covers much of Long Beach in a single loop. It directs runners through The Pike at Rainbow Harbor, onto a 710 Freeway on-ramp, over Queensway Bridge toward the Queen Mary, around the Rainbow Harbor lighthouse, and returns through the start area before heading toward the ocean. The middle section runs alongside the Pacific, through Belmont Shore, past Marine Stadium, around Colorado Lagoon, and by Long Beach Recreation Golf Course. Miles 16 to 20 involve a loop through Cal State Long Beach, after which Ocean Boulevard leads runners back to the Shoreline Drive finish. Local runner Kenny Williams completed every edition for the race's first forty years, and multiple other individuals had not missed a race weekend.

The Long Beach Race for Rare is a 5K run and walk held at Granada Launch Ramp on East Ocean Boulevard in Long Beach, California. The morning features a timed 5K run, a 5K walk, a virtual 5K option, and a picnic-only entry for those wishing to support the cause without participating in the course. Local hosts Lynn and Scott Hopkins coordinate the event with the National MPS Society, with proceeds benefiting that group’s efforts for families affected by MPS and ML conditions. The event begins with onsite registration, packet pickup, and pre-race entertainment prior to the 5K. It then proceeds to awards, a raffle, and a beachside picnic with lunch included in registration. The cause is the primary motivation for attendance: rare diseases impact approximately 10% of Americans, fewer than 5% have an FDA-approved treatment, and many children with rare conditions pass away at a young age. This is a community race, not an elite competition, centered on families, local supporters, walkers, runners, and individuals raising awareness for rare disease care and research.
