This was my second Sugar Daddy Half Marathon. I love running on the Paseos. The course is great. The organization is always very well done! I loved the ice cream!
I would suggest you start the Half even earlier to alleviate the heat.
My one complaint would be that a race of this size and EXPENSE should have age group awards! They don’t have to be much, just a little something to recognize the age groupers! (Suggestion – they make peel and stick “engravings” that can be put on medals, only a few cents each. I give them out at my races for age group awards. The engraving could look like this:
2025 Sugar Daddy Half Marathon
M60-64
1st place
Something like that. I would suggest the same for your other races.

The course it the highlight of this race…. Well, the first 20 miles of it. You have just a couple of easy climbs and lots of gradual downhill. The last section as you get into Ventura is not too exciting, though, until you actually get to the beach.

The Valencia Trail race is a fun event. The roads and trails are tough, with lots of climbing – but what comes up must come back down! Fun! The views from the top of the ridge are awesome for those going slow enough for a sideways glance!

This race is like no other. the fact that it is being run worldwide all at the same time in quite inspiring. Then, you have the prospect of seeing how far you can get before you are caught by the catcher car. EVERY one can do this run. If you can crawl a half mile, or if you can run 50 miles in 5 hours, you can do this race. Santa Clarita starts at 4 am, so there is not much in the way of crowds or scenery. But the aid stations are functional.
