Bear Creek Run

Bear Creek is a trail running event held in Lafayette, California, featuring a half marathon, 10K, and 5K distances. The courses are known for their challenging hills rather than being flat or fast, offering runners and hikers a scenic experience through Briones Regional Park. Participants receive custom finisher medals and high-quality, gender-specific shirts available in a wide range of sizes.

The event welcomes hikers and walkers, and all races are professionally timed with electronic chip timing. Bear Creek emphasizes beautiful trail scenery, strong community support, and unique awards, making it ideal for those seeking a rewarding trail running challenge rather than a personal record.
