The Experience
Inspired by the iconic adventure of "Bill and Ted," Jed and Ted's Excellent Races aims to bring the totally tubular vibes of the '80s and '90s to the start line. This event transforms the LA River Path into North Shore High, where every runner is either trying to make fetch happen or survive gym class.
Wearing pink is encouraged on Wednesdays, and sweatpants are reserved for Saturdays. Runners can choose their challenge: The Burn Book 5K, the Glen Coco 10K, or the Full Plastics Half Marathon. Costumes are welcome, with themes ranging from pink everything to Mathletes jackets and Mrs. Norbury teacher vibes.
Cross the finish line feeling like the new Spring Fling Queen, and earn a medal pretty enough for the court. The event also offers a virtual option, The Multiverse Lunch Table Dash, allowing participation from anywhere.

Presented by Jed and Ted’s Excellent Races. Wear pink if it’s Wednesday. Wear sweatpants only if it’s Saturday. Do not wear army pants and flip flops unless you want everyone else to buy army pants and flip flops. This is your chance to run like you’re late for Calc, dodge Regina’s bus, and earn a medal pretty enough for the Spring Fling Court. Choose your challenge: The Burn Book 5K - A fast and funny out and back perfect for anyone who wants to run, walk, gossip, or talk about how butter is a carb.The Glen Coco 10K - Six point two miles of pure candy cane energy. You go Glen Coco. Treat yourself and your friends. None for Gretchen Wieners.The Full Plastics Half Marathon - Thirteen point one miles of pure drama control. Stay hydrated. Stay cute.
