Sacramento Pride Run

What's included in the registration fee?

Your registration fees get you a race T-shirt and a participation medal. The T-shirt size can be selected during check-out. The shirts are the same for the 5K run and 3K walk. The T-shirt design is forthcoming. Your fees also go to race timing & management, permitting, restrooms, insurance, and all of the logistics to make a race fun, safe and successful.

Can dogs participate?

Unfortunately, dogs are not allowed to participate. Most race insurance policies forbid dogs in their terms of service. Additionally, the logistics of the course make leashed dogs a challenge due to the minimum trail width. Dogs are welcome at the start/finish line.

Can I bring my child's stroller on the 3K walk?

Due to the course logistics which has some uneven terrain and narrow sections, we regret that strollers are not allowed on the course.

Is the event beginner-friendly?

Absolutely! 5K races are a perfect entry point for beginning runners. We also have a 3K walk option if you aren't sure. Hydration stations are available at the start/end of the event as well as at the halfway point.

Is this a family-friendly event?

Yes, all ages are welcomed. However, strollers are forbidden on the course.

What should I wear?

Pride is by nature a festive, bright and fun event. We encourage you to wear a comfortable pair of shoes and to bring your most fabulous costume to match!

What is happening after the run/walk?

After the run we will hold the award ceremony for age and gender brackets. Afterward is the Sacramento Pride Fest.

What is the route of the run/walk?

The race route follows the river path north to Discovery Park where it turns around and comes back. The route map is forthcoming.

Is there a foot locker available?

We will not have storage available for your keys, phone, wallet, or extra clothes, etc. Please plan accordingly.

Will there be drinks and snacks?

We will have water stations at the beginning and half-way point for the runners. Simple snacks will also be available before and after the race.
