Description
Race up and down dirt country roads in vineyard territory, then raise your glass at a finish line wine tasting with live bluegrass music all in support of sustainable agriculture. Presented by Sandy Feet Events, the inaugural Temecula Half Marathon & 5K at Mount Palomar Winery is only open to 200 runners: Sign up before the race sells out.
Runners can add Mount Palomar Winery wine tasting to race registration for a special price. Neighboring wineries will also be offering deals to those who show race bibs, so make a day of it in the Temecula wine region just an hour north of San Diego.
The Temecula 5K course travels through a scenic orchard, while the Half Marathon out-and-back takes runners past vineyards and farmland. Both hilly, the 5K is an easier course, while the Half Marathon offers a medium-level challenge. Remember, dirt roads are better on your knees. Temperatures are expected to be chilly at the start for this fall race, heating up to the 90s by midday.
Plenty of prizes and raffles will be available from our awesome sponsors. Health Force Nutritional will provide fuel on the course.
