What it is

Not a fun run with a speaker. Not just another concert.

A Los Angeles event that combines a timed race with a live lineup of DJs. A serious race, live music and thousands of runners — on one course, on one morning, in the city that has always set the sound.

Choose your distance

One loop. Run it once, twice or three times.

Every distance runs the same 5K loop, so you pick the race you want without changing where you start or finish.
