Santa To the Sea Half Marathon Information

The Santa to the Sea Half Marathon and 5k, is based in the coastal community of Oxnard, CA., and just 40 minutes north of Los Angeles. The Half Marathon and 2 Person Relay starts at the legendary Santa Claus statue, located along the 101 freeway in Nyeland Acres, just outside of Oxnard. The runners follow a flat and fast, USATF certified course, running along the fragrant strawberry fields, through the areas of historic Oxnard decorated for the Holidays, to the beach, and finishing at Channel Islands Harbor and our EXPO Village. Our certified looped 5k course, perfect for both experienced runners and those new to the sport, starts and finishes at the Marine Emporium Landing EXPO Village in the Channel Islands Harbor. Since 2012, we have included a supervised 1K Kid's Run to the annual event. The Kid's Run takes place in the EXPO Village, and allows the kids to safely finish, on the race course, and in the Finish Chute.
