Humboldt Bay Marathon Beautiful races along Humboldt Bay
11th Humboldt Bay Marathon, Half and 5K. Run your cool BQ or Slow AF with us!
8/9/26

Humboldt County in northern California is a beautiful place with a very active running community. The cool coastal weather is ideal for a summer marathon or half with morning temperatures in the 50s that typically rise into the low to mid 60s by mid afternoon. Our nearly flat Boston Qualifying course is just feet above sea level all along Eureka's Waterfront Trails. All races start in OldTown Eure

ka near Madaket Plaza (1st & C Streets) where the finish line festivities will be happening. There's plenty of parking very close by with lots for your non-running support crew to do while you are out having a great race!

The Humboldt Trails Council Trails Summit was a resounding success. Many agencies met together to celebrate successes while looking mostly forward.
None of the work is easy.
It all takes longer than we want.
And still, more and more local trails are being built, opened and maintained.
Come run or volunteer with us on some lovely flat local trails.
