About the Halloween Leftovers - 5K, 10K, 10-Miler, Half Marathon
The course runs along the beach path at Alamitos Beach, right on the shoreline. It is an open path, so expect cyclists and pedestrians sharing the space. The routes are out-and-back, with the shorter distance used as a building block for the longer ones. Turns are marked with chalk and flags, and there is an aid station on course with water, electrolytes, and snacks at the finish.
Bib pickup runs the afternoon before at Sports Basement Long Beach. On race morning, pickup opens early before the first wave goes off. Parking is available in the lot at the beach for an hourly fee, payable by app, or you can find free street parking nearby. A gear check is available at the registration tent, but bring your own bag.
