Fair Oaks Sun Run – “The Chicken Run” Fair Oaks, CA   May 6, 2018

The Fair Oaks Sun Run has been an annual tradition in Fair Oaks, California for 35 years and – believe it or not – it hasn’t gotten one bit easier! Regarded as one of the most beautiful yet challenging courses around, it never fails to attract both the avid runner and those who are out to have a great time at a great event.

Choose either the 5-mile “Chicken ” Run/Walk or the 2 mile Rooster Rumble Untimed Run/Walk. Both events start at Village Park in Old Fair Oaks. The 5-miler winds through the beautiful Old Fair Oaks residential neighborhood with a keyhole loop to Sailor Bar. The course is half paved roads, half dirt trail and features the infamous four hills: Grand Daddy Hill, Hernia Hill, The Beast and Last Gasp. The 2-mile Egg Chase Run/Walk event stays on the paved roads through Old Fair Oaks.
