About this race
Rockaway Beach 5K
Date: July 19, 2026
Location: Dondee & San Marlo Ways, Pacifica, CA
Race Overview
Have you ever wondered how you would do if everyone ran just the Rockaway 5K (and ½ the people didn't go off and do the 12K)? THIS is the chance to find out on one of the most scenic runs of the year. Start off running south along Rockaway beach, then up the switchbacks, followed by a ¼ mile grade to a long downhill to run along Linda Mar Beach before the turnaround. Then it's back up and over, to a fast, flat finish.
