    Jed & Ted's Excellent Races proudly present the second annual Beyond The Streets 5K, 10K & Half Marathon.

    Join us on February 7, 2026 at 7:00 a.m. as we take over the headwaters of the Los Angeles River near Canoga Park High School. This run is all about the real LA River experience, the sights, the sounds, the quiet moments, the unexpected pockets of life. and the community that moves along it.

    This event is FREE, but we encourage donations. Every dollar goes directly to North Valley Caring Services, supporting the people and families who need it most. You’ll see an option to donate during registration.

    We're making this event free because we want everyone to be able to show up, move their body, and be part of something good: no barriers, no pressure, no financial gatekeeping. But if you’re able to donate, even a little, it makes a real difference.

    All donations go directly to North Valley Caring Services, an organization doing hands-on work with people experiencing homelessness, food insecurity, and crisis right here in the Valley. They run meal programs, hygiene services, family support programs, and help folks get back on their feet with dignity and real, practical assistance.

    Think of it this way:

    WE cover the race. YOU cover what you can. TOGETHER we lift up our neighbors.

    If this run brings you joy, clarity, community, or a sense of purpose, consider sharing some of that forward. Every dollar goes straight to NVCS, and every dollar helps someone move beyond survival and toward stability.

    Come be part of something meaningful and memorable, the start of a race that grows with the river, the city, and the community around it.

    On March 14, 2026, at 7:00 a.m. PST, relive one of the most legendary action sequences in film history as you race along the Los Angeles River, the iconic chase scene location from Terminator 2: Judgment Day! Kicking off near Canoga Park High School, this event features 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon distances on a fast, flat course through the heart of the Valley.

    As the sequel to our inaugural race, Beyond the Streets, it’s only fitting that we pay homage to one of The Valley's greatest sequels of all time. Just like T2, this race is bigger, bolder, and totally unstoppable.

    Whether you're here to run, jog, or outrun the T-1000, this race is your chance to be a part of history. Hasta la vista, baby...see you at the start line!

    Choose your challenge:

    • The Hasta La Vista 5K

    • The Judgment Day 10K

    • The Skynet Half Marathon

    • The Multiverse Judgment Dash (Virtual)

    Expect high-energy music, 80s and 90s throwbacks, themed signage, and a cheering crowd. Costumes welcome.

    This is a Jed & Ted’s Excellent Race...fun, fast, and full of heart.

    Parody Note

    This event is a fan-made parody inspired by classic pop culture. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by any official rights holders. It’s all for fun and good vibes.
