About the Red, White, and Run - 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon
The course runs along the beach path at Shoreline Park, starting near the water at Pierpoint Landing. It is an open path shared with cyclists and pedestrians, so runners stay to the right throughout. The route is out-and-back, and the different distances use the same stretch of path in varying loops. Flat coastal terrain, open sky, and water nearby set the tone.
Bibs can be picked up the evening before at Sports Basement Long Beach, with race-morning pickup available as well. Nearby parking lots serve the start area. After finishing, there is water, electrolytes, gels, and fruit at the finish line aid station. A gear check is available at the registration tent if you need to stash a bag.

The Red, White, and Run - 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon has been held every year since at least 2023. 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 Nov 12, 2026.
