Join us! Support a mission! Raise awareness about beach safety.

Rally your family, friends, neighbors and colleagues and join us for a walkathon to raise awareness about beach safety. Start a team, join an already existing team or participate as an individual.

Arunay Foundation is committed to reducing beach accidents and coastal drownings by raising awareness and educating people about sneaker waves, rip currents, and other hazardous beach conditions. Our goal is to equip our beaches with “Life Rings” and keep our communities informed about unsafe weather conditions. Learn more about our mission and projects click here.

Course Info:

Both the 5K & 10K area scenic runs through the packed gravel trails circling through Quarry Lakes Park. Please note that the course is not USATF certified.

The distance has been measured and is approximate.

Please make sure your bib number is clearly displayed on your chest before arriving at the assembly area near the start line.

The start waves will take place from 9.30am to 11:30am with short gaps in between to allow the course ahead to clear, meaning walkers & runners have plenty of space along the course.

If you can not join an earlier start wave, you can always join a later start wave, no issues.

10K runners will loop through the course twice to complete their run.

No bikes or skateboards are allowed on the course.

Walkers follow the same course as runners.

Please stay on the trails, taking shortcuts can be dangerous and cause erosion.

We encourage you to wear proper walking/running shoes and dress in layers.

Keep the park beautiful, leave no trace except your footprints.

Dogs are not allowed on the trails.

There will be adequate garbage disposal facilities , please dispose of water cups and other waste at these garbage bins.

Awards:

Your finisher medals can be picked up after the race at the finish line. We will also have a special booth setup for you to celebrate your medal with pictures and selfies!
