Joshua Tree Half Marathon
The Joshua Tree Half Marathon is a unique nighttime race held in Joshua Tree, California, near the Joshua Tree National Park. This half marathon features a challenging 13.1-mile sandy trail loop course with an elevation gain of 461 feet, mostly on dirt roads and trails with loose sand and rocks. Runners must wear headlamps as the race takes place under the stars, creating a magical desert atmosphere illuminated by colorful lights guiding participants to the finish.
The event starts and finishes at Joshua Tree Lake RV & Campground, offering a festive expo and camping options. It is a popular race to cap off the racing season with a scenic desert night run experience. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
