About this race
Welcome to the second Red, White & Blue Race! This event benefits Code 3 Mind Health, Inc. We are a local non-profit that provides mind health services for first responders.
This course is along the scenic coastal trail in Fort Bragg California. The event begins at the south coastal trail (Noyo Headlands Park) and continues north with the 5k turnaround being near the compass rose. If you participate in the 10k run, you will continue north past historic Glass Beach, and across the Pudding Creek Trestle onto the historic Mackerricher Haul Road with the turn around being near the "silver gate" entrance. For the half-marathon participants, the course continues along the Haul Road, through Mackerricher State Park and turning around just before the entrance to Ten Mile State Preserve. This course is ocean front, with epic views every step of the way! For those of you that have participated in races in this area before, it will look very much like the Whale Run course!
All runners will get a tee shirt - choice of long sleeve or short sleeve
End of race will have fruit/water and coffee.
Coffee will be available for entire event.
