Chula Vista周辺のHalf Marathonレース

The Hoag OC Marathon Running Festival is a road-race weekend in Orange County, California, featuring a sunset 5K on Saturday and the half marathon and full marathon on Sunday. The longer races begin at Fashion Island, the outdoor shopping mall in Newport Beach, with the 5K starting and ending at the OC Fair & Event Center. The event, held annually, originated from an Orange County marathon that offered equal prize money for its first male and female winners. The half and full marathon course departs from Newport Beach onto Pacific Coast Highway, proceeds through Corona del Mar, passes Newport Bay, and then heads inland along residential streets near Upper Newport Bay. The half marathon diverts towards the OC Fair & Event Center around the 12-mile point, while the marathon continues through Costa Mesa, passing the Orange County Museum of Art, Segerstrom Center for the Arts, and South Coast Plaza, before entering Santa Ana and returning south on the Santa Ana River Trail to the fairgrounds. The 5K route remains closer to Costa Mesa, passing Orange Coast College.

Crown Point Relay Runs takes place on a morning at Crown Point Park in San Diego, offering 5K, 8K, half marathon relay, and marathon relay options. The relay races begin early, followed by the 8K and then the 5K. This schedule means the longer team events are underway within the park before the shorter races commence. Relay teams consist of 2 to 5 runners; the half marathon relay spans 5 laps and the marathon relay covers 10 laps. The course follows a paved bike path alongside the calm waters of Mission Bay. It features a flat, fast profile with broad bay views. The course suits walkers, newer runners, club runners, and teams aiming for a fast finish. However, the relay format lends a more social atmosphere than a typical road race. Teams receive a picnic area, chipped timing, shirts, medals, and overall and age-group awards. Active and veteran military or service members are eligible for a registration discount.

The Binational Race is an October running event connecting San Diego and Tijuana. The most direct route begins in San Diego, crosses the U.S.-Mexico border mid-race, and concludes at the beach in Playas de Tijuana. Participants can select a half marathon, a 12K, a Tijuana-only 10K, or a virtual option. Now in its third edition, the event's structure is designed to bring people from both sides of the border together on a single course and at one finish line. The half marathon and 12K utilize the San Ysidro-El Chaparral crossing, traverse the Tijuana River Valley Regional Park, proceed along Avenida Internacional, and finish with a quick downhill run toward Playas de Tijuana. The 10K starts and ends in Tijuana, allowing participants who prefer not to cross the border to join the same beachside finish and post-race activities. The field comprises runners from diverse cultures and backgrounds, and the race was established with backing from both communities following discussions with city officials on both sides. All finishers receive a medal, complimentary race photos, and a timed result; half marathon and 12K runners also get the official shirt.

The event, established in 2016, includes prize money.
