💀 About the Event
Welcome back, campers… and may the luck be ever in your disfavor. 🍀
They say strange things happen every Friday the 13th — but when it lands right before St. Patrick’s Day, you can bet the leprechauns are up to no good.

Join us for Camp Shamrocked: The Unlucky Run, a moonlit race where green fog meets grit, and superstition takes the scenic route down the Long Beach shoreline. Whether you’re chasing a PR or just chasing your luck, you’ll be part of something rare — a tribe that runs through the chaos with heart, humor, and a little mischief.

🌕 Course Info
The course begins under the glowing CaliFlow arch near Belmont Pier, winding along the oceanfront path under the light of the moon (and maybe a little mischief).

Expect glowing green markers, fog  and checkpoints straight out of Camp Shamrocked lore:
🍀 Cabin 13 — where luck runs thin
🪞 The Clover Crossing — every 13th step’s a gamble
🔥 The Campfire Finish — where legends light up the night

Half Marathon: 3 × 4.36-mile loops
10K: 2 × 5K out-and-backs
5K: 1 loop

Each station will be fully stocked with water, encouragement, and a few surprises to keep your spirits high and your luck questionable.

 
🧿 The Vibe – Welcome to Camp Shamrocked
At CaliFlow Runs, we don’t chase luck — we create it. This is your chance to laugh in the face of superstition, defy the odds, and dance your way across that finish line under a canopy of stars and green glow.

So grab your glow sticks, pull on something lucky (or not), and join us for the most unforgettable Friday the 13th run of the year.

✨ Not just a race. Join the movement.
