Race week!! Granted, I spent some time in The Bahamas with a friend of mine from residency a few weeks ago, the Washington cold is kind of sad and depressing. On the flip side, I’m also not in the Polar Vortex that is the Midwest (stay safe guys!). This is my 4th year doing Surf City and third in a row, so I’m excited to hit Legacy Status. Legacy status gets you extra swag (long sleeved shirts) and some extra race day perks.
Things to keep in mind for this weekend:
Runner Tracking: take a look here
Expo: At the Huntington Beach Parking Lot (21291 Pacific Coast Highway Huntington Beach, CA 92648
- Friday Feb 1 from 1-7
- Saturday, Feb 2 from 10-4
- Can’t make the expo? someone can pick up for you, HOWEVER, people picking up for others can only pick up for 2 additional people and must have copies of Driver’s Licenses
Cowabunga Mile: Saturday, February 2 at 11 AM by the expo (and enough time to get your bib before hand!). **no gear check and does NOT count towards Legacy Status
Race Day Sunday, February 3: Marathon Start 6:30 AM, 5K start at 7:00 AM and Half Marathon start at 7:45 AM
Things to Do in Huntington Beach
- Plenty of shopping and restaurants downtown
- Short car ride/Uber/Lyft to Newport Beach for more beach time and restaurants
- Enjoying the beach (if the sun cooperates with us, fingers crossed)
- Old World Village
Keep an eye out for all the Bibrave Orange and enjoy race weekend!
