About the race
For the Love of the Bay 5K/10K in Oakland, California, is a community celebration around Lake Merritt. The flat, fast course loops the lake for the 5K (3.17 miles) and 10K (6.21 miles), ideal for personal records and first-timers. The event features official timing with chip bibs, mile markers, age-group prizes, plus a race shirt and finisher medal for all participants.
Expect live music, a lively start/finish vibe, a post-race raffle, health booths, line dancing, and a cold-plunge challenge. Separate corals accommodate runners and walkers; a toy-drive supports local kids. BART access and lake-area parking are available. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
