🖤 Black is the official love language
🔥 Closure happens at the finish line

Neon, glow, dark humor signs

💀 About the Event
Welcome back, campers… and may the luck be ever in your disfavor. 🍀
They say strange things happen every Friday the 13th — but when it lands right before St. Patrick’s Day, you can bet the leprechauns are up to no good.
Join us for Camp Shamrocked: The Unlucky Run, a moonlit race where green fog meets grit, and superstition takes the scenic route down the Long Beach shoreline. Whether you’re chasing a PR or just chasing your luck, you’ll be part of something rare — a tribe that runs through the chaos with heart, humor, and a little mischief.

The course begins under the glowing CaliFlow arch near Belmont Pier, winding along the oceanfront path under the light of the moon (and maybe a little mischief).
Expect glowing green markers, fog and checkpoints straight out of Camp Shamrocked lore:
🍀 Cabin 13 — where luck runs thin
🪞 The Clover Crossing — every 13th step’s a gamble
🔥 The Campfire Finish — where legends light up the night
Half Marathon: 3 × 4.36-mile loops
10K: 2 × 5K out-and-backs
5K: 1 loop
Each station will be fully stocked with water, encouragement, and a few surprises to keep your spirits high and your luck questionable.
🧿 The Vibe – Welcome to Camp Shamrocked
At CaliFlow Runs, we don’t chase luck — we create it. This is your chance to laugh in the face of superstition, defy the odds, and dance your way across that finish line under a canopy of stars and green glow.
So grab your glow sticks, pull on something lucky (or not), and join us for the most unforgettable Friday the 13th run of the year.

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.

Grievances & Gratitude Run
Release. Move. Begin Again.
Skip the resolutions. Start the year with intention, movement, and joy.
Grievances & Gratitude is a feel-good New Year run designed to help you exhale, reset, and step into 2026 lighter—surrounded by community, movement, and positive energy. This is about letting go of what no longer serves you and making space for gratitude, clarity, and forward momentum.
You can write down everything you’re ready to release… or just one thing. You can take part in the experience—or simply show up and run. However you choose to participate, this event meets you exactly where you are.
Every participant receives a finisher medal, and the option to take part in our signature Let Go & Affirmation Experience—because new beginnings don’t have to be loud or rigid. Sometimes they just need movement and space to breathe.
How It Works
Let Go Before You Go
Before the run, write down anything you’re ready to release—grievances, frustrations, stress, or heavy thoughts. Place them into our “goodbye” containers and symbolically leave that energy behind.
Run Free
Head out on a scenic course and move your body with intention. Run or walk at your own pace, clear your mind, and let each step carry you forward.
Affirmations Await
After crossing the finish line, visit our New Year Mantra Board and select a positive affirmation to guide you into the year ahead. Leave with gratitude, purpose, and renewed energy.
This isn’t just a race—it’s a moment. A reset. A fresh start grounded in movement and community.
Why CaliFlow Runs?
CaliFlow Runs creates inclusive, high-energy, community-driven events that celebrate you. Our races are accessible, joyful, and thoughtfully designed to support physical and emotional well-being—without pressure, pretension, or upsells.
