Small town race with big town feels! From the expo on Saturday to the finish line on Sunday, Livermore embraces this event and you feel the community support from start to finish. This was my first time running this event and had a blast. Even though it had some challenging short hills, this is a course you can definitely nab a personal best.

If you’re looking for a great scenic run this is your race! So much fun and the party after finishing the race is second to none. If you live in Northern California this is a must. If you live outside Northern California this would be a great destination to then enjoy beautiful livernore wine country!

Normally the course is beautiful but because of the rain, changes had to be made. It mentally messed with my head running and seeing all the runners ahead of me passing by on the other side of the sidewalk – twice! I know we couldn’t go through Sycamore Grove but I would have preferred a different course that didn’t have us go down a road and go back up that road – a real loop would have been preferred which was the consensus with the other 3 runners I ran with. Some parts of the course were very muddy which was unfortunate but I know it was nothing the event could have prevented.
The afterparty was even better than last year! Drinks were plentiful, snacks and water were easy to find, porta-potty’s were clean, and the music was lively! Loved the multi-use medal!

This is the 4th time I’ve run this race and unfortunately, they had to modify the course due to the trail damage from recent storms. Despite a couple of boring out and backs, we still got to run through scenic Holdener with views of vineyards and snow-capped hills along the route. I love that so many locals run this race year after year with lots of community support. The best part is the post-run festival with free tastings from top-notch local wineries and breweries. Areas for improvement: No gels at mile 8 aid station, more snacks at the finish would’ve been nice, and the course seemed to be just shy of 13.1 miles.

The Livermore Valley Half Marathon course takes runners through the heart of Livermore Valley passing by several local wineries and offering spectacular views. There is a lot of parking nearby, easy access, and plenty of aid stations; it’s one of my favorite courses. Also free beers afterward! LOL!

The course is great! Love running through sycamore then up to holdner park. Lots of cute inspiration signs along the way. I’ve run this race a number of times. For the price of this race it was definitely a let down at the finish with a small/basic medal and no commemorative wine glass. It’s listed a one of the perks but I never saw any. It was also pretty chaotic once you crossed the finish. To first find a medal then hunt down a banana and maybe a snack somewhere.

My husband and I registered to run this race in 2020 and after 2 years it happened!! We live in town and had run portions of the course before but not in it’s entirety. It’s a beautiful route and so great to run a closed course. There are some challenging hills but that makes the downhill even better 🙂 We’ve already signed up for 2023!
