The Experience
Run GPR is almost here, mark your calendar! Open to runners and walkers of all levels, from elite athletes to first-timers. This is the only half marathon that covers all the major trails of Griffith Park, with a special reward for the first male and female runners to conquer the final peak. Prefer shorter? Our 5K is flat, shaded, and incredibly scenic. Stick around for food trucks, an event expo, and the REI experience. Every participant receives a commemorative die-cast medal, premium t-shirt, and access to sampling booths. Run GPR is unlike any other event in Griffith Park. Proudly in partnership with the LA Parks Foundation and featuring one of the largest prize purses in the region.
