THE COURSES
HALF MARATHON
With just 220 feet of elevation gain, the half marathon is a fast, flat course, perfect for a chance at a PR. The course is a loop, starting and finishing at Mike Ward Community Park, in the heart of Irvine. The course takes in some of Irvine's biggest neighbourhoods, including Huntley, Walnut and Orangetree.
The terrain is a mix of running paths and roads, and there are ample aid stations along route stocked with Nuun Electrolytes and Honey Stinger product.
Don’t be surprised when you see the LA Clippers spirit squad cheering for you on the course and at the finish!
Pacers: There will be pacers running at the following half marathon times: 1:30; 1:40; 1:50; 2:00; 2:15; 2:30; 2:45; 3:00; 4:00.
Time limit: 4hrs. Participants need to maintain an 18:20 minute/mile.

  • The team captain will pay the registration fee for the relay and is responsible for collecting payment from team members outside of the registration system.
  • Each team allows for 5 team members.
5K
The Orange County 5K also starts and finishes at Mike Ward Community Park.
Runners will leave the expo area and run on the San Diego Creek Trail, the backbone of Orange County’s trail system. As with the half marathon, this is a fast and flat course where runners can post a new personal record.
This is an out and back course and has one aid station that each runner will pass twice.
The 5k sold out in 2018, so make sure you buy your tickets early.
Time limit: 1 hour. Participants need to maintain a 19:20 minute/mile pace - so it is great for walkers and runners alike.
Kids Run
If you’re excited about running, your kids will be, too! Help them learn about the joys of running by entering them into the Kids Run.
Parents are welcome to run alongside their kids or cheer for them at the start/finish line. Runners will leave the expo area and run in a loop around the park.
Don’t forget to check out the Kids Zone in the Health & Fitness Expo Area for games, tattoos (one thousand glitter tattoos!), coloring, hula hoops, and much more!
