Bakersfield, CA
Entry is $36 now and rises to $56 after Nov 16, 2026, so registering before then saves $20.
The race takes place at Yokuts Park on the east side of Bakersfield. The park setting puts runners on open ground away from heavy traffic, though the course shape itself is best confirmed closer to race day.
Packet pickup is race morning only, at the park itself, and stays open well into the morning so there is no need to rush in. Online registration remains open up until the start, which makes last-minute sign-ups possible.
