Event Description
🖤 Season of the Witch Run 5K & 10K • Long Beach
Spooky season starts early in Long Beach. Step into the Season of the Witch Run, a magical 5K & 10K experience where movement meets mysticism and the coastline becomes your coven. Witches, warlocks, mystics, and magical beings of all kinds are invited to lace up, costume up, and run into fall with us. Set against the ocean backdrop at Granada Beach, this is more than a race — it’s a ritual.
Before the miles begin, gather for our Witch Warm-Up Ritual, a guided movement flow designed to awaken your body, focus your energy, and set your intention. Because how you start matters.
As the sun rises, we take off together — capes flowing, brooms flying, spells activated — for a scenic, flat, and fast coastal run that’s welcoming to runners, joggers, and walkers alike.
After you cross the finish line, the magic continues. Stay for our Spellbound Stretch Cool Down, a grounding yoga session by the ocean to help your body recover, release, and restore. Then explore our Witchy Fair & Finish Line Festival, featuring psychic and tarot readers, crystals, mystical vendors, music, and some of the most epic photo ops of the season.
🧙♀️ Costumes are highly encouraged, and we’ll be awarding our Best Witch / Warlock Costume — so bring the drama, the sparkle, or the spooky glam.
✨ This is your reminder that movement is powerful. ✨ Healing can be playful. ✨ And running can be magic. Come cast your spell with us.
