From big races to Saturday morning group runs—find relay events and connect with the local endurance sports community.
The event is now sold out. If you are interested in competing, please register for the waitlist and we will let in new teams if we get any scratches.
On Thursday, February 26 the Leap Day/Observatory Loop Relay will return for year three. This is a 4 x Mile trail relay race, where teams of two, take on the one mile long Observatory Loop. Each team will run the loop four times, with team members alternating laps, and handing off a baton at the conclusion of each lap. (That means each individual runner will do the loop two times, with a break between each loop.)
The race will start at 7pm. This means it will be dark during the race! Runners are required to race in headlamps.
You can sign up with a partner or individually (and we will place you with a partner).
This event is open to runners of all ability levels. All runners take home a branded baton.

Blacklist LA started in 2013 with a radical idea: running could rewire how Los Angeles connects with itself. Founded on the belief that the city's sprawl is not a barrier but a canvas, the crew has grown to over 300 runners who show up Monday nights at 10pm without hesitation. Their philosophy is straightforward, running is a vehicle for community and cultural discovery. Every Monday night, they gather at Walt Disney Concert Hall and hit the streets toward the city's street art, turning late-night Los Angeles into a living gallery. Art, transit, and open roads are all fair game. For Blacklist LA, civic pride runs as deep as the miles.
In 2013, David Gómez and Elisa García asked a question that split the Los Angeles running scene: why did running clubs thrive only in wealthier neighborhoods? From their roots in Boyle Heights, East LA, they started the Boyle Heights Bridge Runners with one mission: create a space that belongs to their community. Every Wednesday night, runners gather at Mariachi Plaza and set out across the bridges that link their neighborhood to downtown, a route that has become iconic. What began as a small group has grown into a beacon for the city, drawing mechanics, teachers, artists, and activists into something deeper than miles. The crew stands for unity and inclusivity, proving that running can bridge not just geography but divides. Today, BHBR reminds LA that every neighborhood deserves to be seen, heard, and celebrated on the streets.
