Event Details: 

We have partnered with the USS Hornet to bring a super fun and unique race experience to Alameda. Our Day of the Dead 5k benefitting the USS Hornet Museum will start at 6pm. Sunset is scheduled that evening for 6:10pm, so as the sun goes down, runners will return to the pier of the ship for music, food, beer and a fun time all under the lights of the haunted ship. Costumes for both events are encouraged but please make sure they are safe to run in. We don't want any skinned knees out on the course. 

The run will take you for a scenic loop around Alameda Point, starting and finishing at the Pier. Runners will enjoy views of San Francisco, spirit alley and the estuary shoreline along the flat and fast 5k course.

THERE IS NO KIDS RUN FOR 2024 - DUE TO THE SUNSET AND TRAFFIC CONCERNS ON FRIDAY NIGHT... We will evaluate and look to make changes for 2025. Thanks for the understanding.... 

There is plenty of parking at the Hornet and around Alameda Point.
