About the Event
Judgment Day Half Marathon & 5K Run/Walk

Events: Half Marathon, 5K Run/Walk, Virtual Half Marathon
Half Marathon Course Description: One of the best half marathon courses in the valley! This is a very scenic course. It will start & finish at the historic Sam Lynn Ballpark. You will run out the back gate to the paved Kern River Trail (East) into the Panorama Vista Preserve (dirt trails) for a 3.5-mile loop, and then back onto the Kern River Trail to China Grade Road. Runners will turn right onto the Alfred Harrell Hwy/China Grade Loop (closed road) - yes that's a challenging 1-mile climb up to the Panorama Bluffs, but everyone loves it, and Judgment Day wouldn't be the same without it! Once at the top, you will continue through Panorama Park along the bluffs with awesome vista views, before sweeping back down to the paved running trail along the Kern River, and finishing back inside the ballpark. This course has everything - start/finish on grass, paved trails, dirt trails, paved (closed) roads, an uphill, a downhill, and lots of fun!!
5K Course Description: Start & finish from inside Sam Lynn Ballpark, it's an out & back on the Kern River (paved) trail.
