Join Us for the 2026 OC Marathon and Support Project Youth OC!

Since 2004, Project Youth OC has proudly partnered with the OC Marathon as an official Charity Partner. This year, we are celebrating 22 years of impact - and reaching a major milestone.

In 2026, Project Youth OC will surpass $1 million raised through our partnership with the OC Marathon.

Our Road to a Million campaign represents more than a number. It reflects decades of community support, thousands of runners and fundraisers, and countless young lives impacted at critical turning points.

The OC Marathon offers something for everyone:

  • 5K Walk/Run: Saturday, May 2, 2026, at the OC Fairgrounds.

  • Marathon & Half Marathon: Sunday, May 3, 2026, starting at Fashion Island and finishing at the OC Fairgrounds.

When you join our team, you’ll help empower youth and strengthen families across Orange County.

Every dollar raised through peer-to-peer fundraising goes directly toward life-changing mentorship, education, and support services for over 1,500 youth and their families each year.

Together, we can run, walk, and fundraise for a brighter future!

    Music, food and running! Celebrate a night under the lights with us by running 12 and a half laps! This event is open to all ability levels. We will have 8 heats of the 5K (3.1 miles), seeded based on your expected 5k time, with maximum cut off time at 35 minutes.

    All participants will receive a post race meal ticket for our food truck partner, Birreria y Tacos Doña Betty. Finishers will also receive a commemorative race medal, and winners of each heat will get a special surprise.

    Adidas will have spikes and super shoes for you to demo during the race so you can hit your fastest time!

    Heats will be chosen based on expected finish times, and will be announced closer to race day. Please estimate as close to your current fitness as possible. If you win your heat by 2 minutes or more, you will be ineligible for any prizes. BE HONEST WITH YOUR PROJECTED TIME!

    Space is limited and will sell out.
