A Splash and Dash is a fun and fast-growing sport that combines running and swimming, and focused on focused on fun and participation over competition. OTC wants to introduce kids and families to how great the multisport life is through this USAT sanctioned event!

We celebrate participation!

For our regular Super Sprints, timing will be unofficial, and everyone wins for the regular Super Sprints. Kids of any age can choose Super Sprint x1 or Super Sprint x2.

And back from 2025, kids can choose to do the Super Sprint x2 competitive event - which will count towards the USAT Northern California Youth Series!

We will have volunteers around supporting safety and fun, making sure kid take breaks mid-swim if need -- and that they catch their breath before heading on towards the run course. Every competitor will be celebrated as they cross the finish line and will go home with an NEW FOR 2026 official USAT Splash and Dash medal, or a custom competitive wave medal.

Come on out and join the fun!

In Support of Local High School Mountain Bikers

The Berkeley Omnium is also a fundraiser for the local NICA teams at Berkeley High School, El Cerrito High School, Albany High School, Oakland Composite, Oakland Tech High School, and Skyline High School. A portion of each entry fee goes DIRECTLY to the NICA teams and helps make cycling accessible for young student-athletes. Last year’s event raised $21,000 for Berkeley High School, El Cerrito High School, Albany High School, and Oakland Composite.

Berkeley Hill Road Race Staging

Racers will stage at the Orinda BART parking lot, like last year. The times mentioned above are staging times, and racers will conduct a neutral start in three waves from the Orinda BART to the starting line under the supervision of a car and a USAC official. Races will then start (separately) from the start line.

The staging area takes place on the northeast side of the Orinda BART parking lot, near the registration table (coordinates: 37.8804152,-122.1832872). Show up at your designated time, ready to race.

Food: Rincon del Cielo Taqueria will be on-site at the registration area to sell burritos, tacos, and drinks at 9:00 a.m.
