It’s peak summer season, but gorgeous early morning runs and races are a great way to see the Anaheim area from a fresh perspective. The Hansen Dam Superhero Run in Lake View Terrace is a popular triathlon that gives you a chance to cool off during the swimming portion of the event. Stick around to splash in the lake after the race (or root on the contenders!).
The Tiki Beach 5k and 10k on August 13th at Huntington Beach gives you the option of two distances so you can pick your challenge. Huntington Beach is one of the closest golden coasts to Anaheim, just a short drive away and boasting a charming coastal town. You’ll want to linger afterwards for some fresh seafare and boutique shopping.
