About the Run for the Planet - 5K, 10K, Half Marathon
The course runs along the ocean in Long Beach, starting on Ocean Boulevard. You get the coastal air the whole way, with the water beside you for much of the route. The organizers lean into an eco-friendly approach, encouraging runners to bring reusable bottles rather than relying on cups at the aid stations.
