Santa Cruz Marathon
Run Where Endurance Meets Attitude
Oct 25, 2026
Full Marathon | Half Marathon | 5K This isn’t just another California race. Rugged. Raw.
It’s a run on the edge. Untamed. From the historic Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk to Capitola Village, Wilder Ranch State Park, and the city’s iconic coastal bluffs - you’ll shred miles through surf spots, seaside towns, and 100+ years of California history.
🏃 Distances: Marathon | Half Marathon | 5K
🔥 Why Run:
- A dynamic, scenic coastal course (not just a straight out-and-back)
- Authentic Santa C

🚨 THE 5K IS OFFICIALLY SOLD OUT.
Two distances tapped out in year one. That leaves one: the Half Marathon. And when it's gone, it's gone. Just like the other two.
This is the inaugural Santa Cruz Marathon. One shot at boardwalk to bluffs, Capitola Village to Wilder Ranch, 100+ years of Santa Cruz history in 13.1 miles that don't do soft.
You watched two sell out. Don't watch three.
Half Marathon spots → link in bio.
Still chasing the 5K? Waitlist is there too.
