Set to arrive in Long Beach on Saturday, September 20, 2025, the Booty Dash Pirate Run is a spirited, thematic event featuring 5K, 10K, and half marathon distances along the scenic coastal path (2000 Ocean Ave). Designed by CaliFlow Runs, this pirate-inspired event invites runners to “dig for gold,” embrace playful costumes, and enjoy laid-back vibes with ocean views.
The half marathon begins at 7 AM, with a 3:20 cutoff, while the shorter distances follow shortly thereafter. Each course consists of flat, USATF-measured out-and-back loops—well-marked and accessible—making the event ideal for both personal achievements and casual participation.
Post-race festivities include pirate-themed medals, whimsical finisher swag, and opportunities to win costume contests. CaliFlow’s community-first approach ensures volunteer perks, ample course support, free race-day photos, and a fun atmosphere for all ages.
