The Experience
The Harvest Hustle series, set against the picturesque backdrop of Hansen Dam Recreational Area in Lake View Terrace, CA, invites runners to experience a unique out-and-back course. This event, now in its third year, offers distances of 5K, 10K, and a half marathon, drawing participants from approximately four states.
The half marathon utilizes a 4.4-mile loop completed three times, promising a fast and flat profile ideal for achieving personal bests, with a typical winning time around 93 minutes. Runners can expect a straightforward course with two aid stations, and the event concludes with a 3-hour, 20-minute course closure for the half marathon.
All finishers are awarded a race medal, adding a tangible reward to the accomplishment. While the event is in its early years and has a low repeat-runner rate, it provides a solid option for those seeking a well-organized, accessible race day experience in Southern California.
