About the BOO-gie Glow Run 5K 10K Half Marathon

This one runs at night along the Long Beach shoreline, starting as the sun goes down and finishing under glow lights and a DJ set. The course follows a paved beach path, flat the whole way, with neon lighting along the route. Costumed runners are the norm, dogs are welcome on the course, and there is a costume contest at the finish.

Check-in opens in the late afternoon, well before the first wave goes out. The half marathon starts while it is still light; the shorter distances go off after dark, when the glow effects are fully visible. Race-day photos are included at no extra charge, and results come through chip timing.
