Run the Parkway

Run the Parkway is an annual running event held at the scenic American River Parkway in Sacramento, California. It offers a 20-mile race, a half marathon, and untimed nature walks for adults and children, with walkers able to cover up to approximately 4 miles. This event serves as the official training run for the California International Marathon, providing aid stations and pace teams that simulate race day conditions.

Organized by the Sacramento Running Association in partnership with the American River Parkway Foundation, all proceeds support the preservation and enjoyment of the Parkway, a treasured local natural area. The event fosters a supportive atmosphere for runners and walkers alike. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
