INDEPENDENCE DAY CLASSIC 5K

2009 marked our 27th Independence Day Classic 5K race and was our largest turnout to date, with just under 700 participants. This 5K has become a Santa Clarita tradition, as the last few miles follow the city's parade route, which makes for an ideal cheering section. It's a fast and flat course, an ideal race to get your summer PR. Mark your calendar for July 4, 2010.

MONSTER DASH 5K

Halloween Day, 2009 marked our inaugural Monster Dash 5K and Kids K run at Lombardi Ranch. The course was unique and challenging, with hills, twists and turns and multiple corn and sunflower mazes. In our inaugural event, we had over 400 registered participants (including more than 50 kids in our Kids K)and more than 50% of the participants ran in costume. The proceeds of the 2009 event benefitted the City of Hope. Below are the official results and photos. We hope to run with you again next Halloween Day, 2010.

Come join us at any of our scheduled gatherings, all of which are listed in our calendar.

  • Our Saturday Morning Run is one of the club's traditional gathering place. The run begins at Starbuck's at 7:00 am in the Lowe's center on Bouquet Canyon Road and covers a marked course for distances up to 10 miles. A fast course, the looped out and back route offers ample opportunity to greet fellow runners as well as turn arounds for shorter distances. Preview the run with our online map.

  • Is the marathon your reason for being? Then our Marathon Training group is the place for you, with carefully planned training distances and maps. Water and Gatorade are strategically located along the course. The group meets at Granary Square on McBean Parkway, Sundays at 6:30 am.

  • Feel the need for speed? Interval workouts are held Tuesday evenings at 6:15 pm on the College of the Canyons track in Valencia.

  • Thursdays at 6:15 pm comprise our all-around social training runs, about 5-6 miles at an easy pace. As the daylight hours lengthen these runs gradually migrate to the beautiful trails surrounding Santa Clarita Valley. Check our calendar for current run locations.

  HOW WE HELP THE COMMUNTITY

What we do and how we can help!

The Santa Clarita Runners provides both personnel and expertise to race organizers and events throughout the surrounding community.

Our Race Management expertise provides your event with official management of race results. Our services will provide you and your event participants with race results that are fast and accurate.

We work closely with race organizers throughout the event. Our volunteers coordinate the vital aspects of your race with you; registration, start of the race, finish line and tabulation of race results. We furnish personnel, finish line equipment, and timing mechanisms. We design an effective finish line not only for the runners, but also for the spectators.

We also are a consultant resource, providing assistance to your event's Race Director. Our services have proven beneficial in successful running events throughout the surrounding running community for more than 20 years:
  • Women's 5K
  • Independence Day 5K
  • Castaic Community 10 Mile - 5K Run/Walk
  • Santa Clarita Marathon Race Events
  • Magic Mountain 5K
Because of the spirited and generous people we bring into our club, there is a groundswell of support when we call for volunteers. We actively encourage volunteering to help community groups and charities with their running events. It is an opportunity for meeting new people, having fun, applying your skills, learning something new, involving your friends and family and achieving personal goals in life.

There is no end to the creative avenue for volunteering, just as there is no end to the need for volunteers. Participate as much as you wish - no experience necessary!
