Bagel Run 5k, 10k, 15k, and Half Marathon

Celebrate National Bagel Day by running a 5k, 10k, 15k, or Half Marathon along the ocean. We will have bagels and spread at the finish.

Costume prizes for our best-dressed bagels. 

Boutique events that remove barriers and help individuals to connect and achieve their goals.

Signing up for one of our run/walk events won’t break the bank. Our low-cost races are cozy and intimate, where you have a chance to get to know your fellow runner and your race director if you like. If you don’t want to chat or make new friends but prefer to put in your earbuds and get lost in the ocean breeze, that is totally fine as well.

We will take care of you. Let us worry about the water and fuel you need to finish your distance so you can do you. You decide what feels right for you that day. 

You have the flexibility to sign up for any of at least four different distances at every one of our friendly gatherings. No hassle, no penalty fee involved if you want to change distances on race day. Small events mean not having to get to the event hours before the start or sitting in a line of cars forever to get out of the parking lot.

High Tide Runs are a project of Mercury Events LLC. Mercury Events organizes larger events in throughout the Southwest United States.

This is an open course.  There may be other pedestrians, runners, or cyclists on the path with you, please be courteous to them and do not spread out wide so that others can not get by you.

This is a small informal event.  Everyone will get a finishers medal that notes what distance you completed.  This is a smaller race that emphasizes more personal satisfaction to racing. Thank you and look forward to seeing you out there!
