💀 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.

🌊 What to Expect

USATF-Certified Course

Chip Timing for accurate results ⏱️

Free Race-Day Photos by Nina & Dre 📸

Finisher Medals for All Participants 🏅

Overall & Age Group Awards

3 On-Course Water Stations (one at each turnaround)

Campfire Finish Line Festival 🔥

Costume Contest – Leprechauns, Lucky Charms & Creatures of the Night 👻

DJ, Lights & Green Glow Effects for that signature CaliFlow After-Dark magic

Runners, Walkers, and Shamrocked Souls of All Paces Welcome!

🌕 Course Info

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.

✨ Not just a race. Join the movement.

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.

💀 About the Event

Welcome to Camp Turkey Terror — where the tables have turned and the turkeys are taking revenge. 🦃🔥

It’s Friday the 13th, and under the harvest moon, the woods come alive with feathers, fog, and just a hint of chaos.

Join us for the final chapter in the Camp CaliFlow Trilogy, a fall night of fun, fright, and fearless miles. Whether you’re running from guilt, running for the pie, or just running for the glow, this one’s for you.

Because at Camp Turkey Terror… the turkeys fight back.

🌊 What to Expect

USATF-Certified Course 🏁

Professional Chip Timing ⏱️

Free Race-Day Photos by Nina & Dre 📸

Finisher Medals for All Participants 🏅

Overall & Age Group Awards 🥇

All paces welcome — runners, walkers, and leftovers alike!

🌕 Course Info

The course begins beneath the glowing CaliFlow Arcch, tracing the flat, scenic Long Beach path under the light of the harvest moon.

As you make your way through the fog, you’ll pass a few iconic “Camp Turkey Terror” checkpoints:

🔥 The Final Feast Turnaround

🍂 Stuffing Station 13

🥧 Pie or Die Water Stop

Half Marathon: 3 × 4.36-mile loops

10K: 2 × 5K out-and-backs

5K: 1 loop

Each turnaround features a full water station, friendly “camp counselors,” and plenty of autumn spirit to keep you moving before the turkeys catch up.

🍁 The Vibe – Totally Camp CaliFlow

Think Thanksgiving meets slasher flick, but with way better lighting and medals you’ll actually want to show off.

Expect glowing campfires, pumpkin decor, moody fog, and more laughs than screams as you cross the finish line at our “Campfire Feast” celebration.

Because at CaliFlow Runs, we don’t fear the chaos — we run through it.

And this time… the turkeys are watching. 👀

✨ Not just a race. Join the movement.

There are several races that take place in and around our Long Beach course locations — but there’s only one CaliFlow Runs. 🌊 We are not affiliated with any of them.

If it’s not CaliFlow, it’s just an "average"race.. ❤️

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.

✨ Professionally chip-timed

✨ USATF-certified courses

✨ Free race-day photos

✨ No forced shirts. No gimmicks. Just good vibes.

Who Can Participate?

Everyone is welcome.

Runners • Walkers • Strollers • First-timers • Seasoned athletes

This event is for anyone ready to move into the new year with intention.
