About the RunThrough USA Long Beach 5k,10k & Half Marathon Race
The course starts at Shoreline Aquatic Park and runs along the Long Beach coastline. The terrain is flat, with open ocean views for most of the route. Several distance options are available, so the field tends to be a mix of people running different races on the same morning. It is the kind of course where fast times are genuinely possible.
