About the Bayside Saved by the Bell 5K, 10K & Half Marathon
The course runs through the streets of Canoga Park with a loose, costume-friendly atmosphere built around a nostalgia theme. Runners are encouraged to dress up, and the organizers seed the route with pop-up encouragement stops along the way. Several distance options let people pick how far they want to go, from a shorter run to a half marathon.
The start is at a specific address on Owensmouth Avenue, so parking and navigation to the start line are straightforward if you look it up ahead of time. Costumes are part of the culture here, and the pre-race energy leans toward a pep rally more than a traditional race morning.

The Bayside Saved by the Bell 5K, 10K & Half Marathon has been held every year since at least 2025. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Jul 27, 2026.
