We love having the Kern County Museum as our finish line area. History makes for a beautiful backdrop with friends!

A little action out there 👏 Excited to see our community's incredible running scene show up to support this event every year!

One of our runners shared these stunning on-course sunrise shots and it just makes us wish it was April already for the next race!

How do you make sure you're always having fun at races?

Friends? A great playlist? Family on course?

All right, folks! Here are all the details you need to know for our group run with IBProFun Run Club on Saturday morning 5:45am at Jastro Park.

First of all, there is no need to RSVP, just show up! This is a free run led by our friends at IBProFun Run Club. It’s not a race. However, they have included a Strava challenge on the 6 mile run, so if you are looking for a reason to go fast this weekend, there ya go!

They’re also hosting a school supply donation drive! If you can contribute an item, like pencils, notebooks, pens, folders, or anything that school kids might need for their upcoming year, please bring it along to donate.

We’ve got discount codes for the race, and there will be raffles, post run snacks, and hydration. 👏👏👏

If you are looking for the Strava route, specifically, reach out to IBProFun Run Club.

If you have any questions that we haven’t answered in this post, please comment, and one of us will respond! Otherwise, have an amazing time out there, getting your miles with our Bakersfield community! Tag us in your posts afterwards!
