    The Pacific Coast Triathlon invites athletes of all ages and abilities — from first-timers to seasoned competitors — to experience one of Southern California’s most scenic and celebrated races at the

    stunning Crystal Cove State Beach.

    Start your day with a refreshing open-water swim in the Pacific Ocean right at Crystal Cove State Beach. Full lifeguard support and typically comfortable wave conditions make this leg welcoming for every level. Choose the Sprint (½ mile / ~750 m) or Olympic (1,500 m).

    Next, tackle the bike on a fully closed, rolling course along the iconic Pacific Coast Highway. Enjoy sweeping ocean views as you ride two loops for the Sprint (12 miles) or four loops for the Olympic (40K / ~24.8 miles).

    The run winds along the gorgeous Crystal Cove Trail and paths, with panoramic ocean views on one side and Pacific Coast Highway on the other. You’ll pass through the historic beach cottages, and — when tides allow — enjoy a memorable stretch right along the sand before climbing back up for an unforgettable oceanfront finish. Sprint runners cover 3 miles; Olympic athletes run 6.2 miles (10K), with aid stations every mile.

    Additional race options include Sprint & Olympic Duathlon, Aquabike, Relay teams (male, female, or co-ed), and a 5K Beach and Trail Run.

    This USAT-sanctioned event is part of the popular OC Tri Series and proudly supports local non-profits. Every finisher receives a custom medal (plus official race shirt and other great swag). Expect a festive beachside atmosphere with post-race food, awards ceremony, vendor village, and plenty of cheering spectators.

    Whether you’re chasing a personal record or simply soaking in the beauty of the California coast, the Pacific Coast Triathlon delivers the perfect mix of challenge, scenery, and community.

  • DINO DASH [runsignup.com]

    Sun, Nov 01, 2026 at 6:30 AM

    It's an Orange County tradition!

    The Dinosaur Dash is a community run, walk, and bike event benefiting the Tustin Public Schools Foundation. There's something for everyone--a 2k fun run, chip-timed

    5k and 10k runs, and Bike Tours for all riding levels (15k and a family-friendly 5k).

    The finisher medal for the 10k, 5k, and Bike Tour features our unique, student-designed logo.

    The 5k and 10k top finishers in each racing age division will receive the official Dino Dash trophy--hand-made by Tustin Unified students. Second- and third-place finishers will receive a medal. The 2k Fun Run and the Bike Tour are not timed and do not have age division awards.

    The 15k bike tour passes through Tustin and Irvine before returning to The Market Place in Tustin. This tour is recommended for riders age 13 and up since it is on open roads. We also offer a family-friendly 5K tour on closed roads. The Bike Tours are not timed.

    A free family Expo will offer activities, school fundraising booths, and exhibitors.

    The Tustin Public Schools Foundation is a charitable organization that supports the students and teachers of Tustin Unified schools by funding grants, scholarships, and enrichment programs such as after-school sports, robotics, college readiness, Tustin Summer Academy, and more.

    PLEASE NOTE: Race day registrations (Sunday, November 2nd) do not include a shirt.
