Join Caren Ware Events for the Lucky Trails Half Marathon & 5K, a scenic Irvine race weaving through the Jeffrey Open Space Trail and the Irvine Spectrum area. A community favorite kicking off the Southern California spring race season.

Course Description

Both distances start and finish at William R. Mason Regional Park. The 5K stays on flat paved trail loops around the park's lake. The Half Marathon heads out along the Jeffrey Open Space Trail before looping back through quiet Irvine neighborhoods — mostly flat with one gentle rolling section between miles 7 and 9.

Parking

Free parking is available in the Mason Park main lot and overflow lot on Sand Canyon Ave. Lots open at 5:30am. Carpooling is encouraged as the main lot fills by 6:45am.

Packet Pickup

Packet pickup is available Friday, March 13 from 12pm–6pm at the Irvine Running Company, and race morning from 5:30am–6:45am at the Mason Park start line tent.

Aid & Water Stations

Water stations are located approximately every 1.5 miles along the Half Marathon course, with a full aid station (water, electrolyte drink, and energy chews) at miles 6.5 and 10.5. The 5K has one water stop near the halfway point.

Medical

Medical staff and a first-aid tent are stationed at the start/finish line, with a roving medical bike team along the Half Marathon course.

Awards Ceremony

Awards ceremony begins at 9:30am near the finish line stage. Top 3 overall male/female in each distance, plus top 3 in each 5-year age division, receive custom Lucky Trails awards.

Volunteers

We're always looking for course marshals, water station crew, and finish line volunteers. Volunteers receive a free race shirt and finisher medal. Sign up through the Caren Ware Events volunteer form.
