Run a half or full marathon at Long Beach, Surf City, and The OC in consecutive order to qualify! This is a great way to keep running throughout the year!

The Beach Cities Challenge is a challenge that combines three of the most beautiful races in Southern California. The races are The Surf City Marathon, The SDCCU Orange County Marathon, and the Long Beach International City Bank Marathon. When a runner completes any combination of three Marathons or Half Marathons in consecutive order, they automatically win The Beach Cities Challenge Medal. Runners will automatically be registered for the Beach Cities Challenge once they run 2 of the Beach Cities. Upon completion of their third marathon or half marathon, they will be awarded the Beach Cities Challenge medal at the Finish Line!
