38th Annual Santa Monica to Venice Christmas Run on December 5th
The Santa Monica-Venice Christmas Run is Los Angeles' largest holiday running event. In fact, the race is one of the most popular running events in Los Angeles, regardless the time of year. The Christmas Run was started in 1977 with 10,000 runners participating in the race. For over 3 decades, it has not only remained a highly popular local run but the event has become a Santa Monica and Venice institution, and an integral part of the Los Angeles community during the holiday season. For many, the Christmas Run is the true start of the holidays. The Santa Monica-Venice Christmas Run includes a 5k and a 10k run that winds through the beautiful streets of Santa Monica and Venice, California, including a long stretch along the famous Venice Beach boardwalk.
New for this year, the race will finish at the iconic Venice Pavilion on Windward Ave!
