OktobeRun Half Marathon and 5K Run/Walk

This Saturday, Redwood City will host the 2nd Annual OktobeRun Half Marathon and 5K Run/Walk.  Last year’s inaugural race was one of the first half marathons on the Peninsula in years.  The half marathon course is flat, scenic, and mostly off-road, perfect for a personal record.  Beginning at historic Courthouse Square in downtown Redwood City, half marathoners join the Bay Trail by the San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge to Redwood Shores and back. The 5K course follows the first part of the longer course and is mostly on city streets.


After the race, runners and their families can stay for a full day of food, drink, and live entertainment at the Peninsula Oktoberfest celebration at Courthouse Square!


All proceeds from the race go to the Redwood City Education Foundation.
