WHERE SURF
MEETS RUN
For 29 years, the Surf City Marathon has been a gathering of dreamers and doers, runners and movers; a testament to Huntington Beach’s unique blend of surf culture and enduring spirit.
Whether you’re chasing a personal best or soaking in the scenery, you’ll find your perfect distance here, where ocean waves meet open roads. Join us in February 2026; where we’ll chase sunrise, run alongside waves, and own the open road. Together, we’ll embody Surf City USA; where surf meets run.
