The May 6th event combines 5K and 10K runs with an environmentally themed Expo on the Santa Monica Pier. All event proceeds go to Heal the Bay!
Join us on Sunday, May 6th, 2007, for the 2nd Annual Santa Monica Classic! This year, the event will be even bigger and better, including a new Corporate Challenge 10K.
The event, produced and managed by Heal the Bay Board member Peter Abraham along with Pacific Sports, is designed with you, the participant, in mind. Every detail, from the running course to the Expo, will leave a lasting impression.
The 5K/10K Runs
Since all net proceeds from the Santa Monica Classic go to Heal the Bay, participants will be helping keep coastal waters safe and clean while enjoying spectacular 10k and 5k runs.
The courses will take runners from the world famous Santa Monica Beach up Main Street and through the winding streets of San Vicente Blvd. Participants will cross the finish line atop the picturesque Santa Monica Pier.
Highlights of the runs include:
- Nike Dri-Fit technical shirts for all participants
- Nike Club Run LA training program 5 days per week
- Same spectacular scenic point-to-point course finishing at the Santa Monica Pier
- Corporate Challenge-three person co-ed teams
- Relax and recover at the post-race Expo on the Pier
- Help raise money and awareness for Heal the Bay!
