Kick off your Super Bowl Sunday with an exhilarating start at the iconic Redondo Beach Super Bowl Sunday Race on February 8, 2026, in picturesque Redondo Beach, CA. This beloved event, a long-standing tradition in the South Bay, offers participants the choice of a 10K or 5K run/walk, alongside a 10K Baby Buggy Run, 5K Stroller Walk, and a Kids' 1K Fun Run, making it a perfect outing for the whole family. Known as one of Southern California's largest Super Bowl celebrations, the race attracts thousands of enthusiasts eager to earn their post-game festivities.

The course itself is a captivating journey, winding through Redondo Beach with both scenic delights and engaging challenges. Starting and finishing on Harbor Drive, runners will be treated to refreshing ocean breezes and stunning views of the Pacific Ocean, the historic Redondo Beach Pier, the Marina in King Harbor, and the vibrant Wyland whale mural.

Water stations are available along the course, with a medical tent at the finish area for runner support.

What truly sets the Redondo Beach Super Bowl Sunday Race apart is its festive pre-game atmosphere.
