Newport Beach Back Bay
Santa Ana, CA 92703
The O. C. Badgers will once again sponsor Crazylegs World Run/Walk in the beautiful Newport Beach Back Bay. Team CLOC has taken Orange County by storm since 2010. You'll feel just like you're running in Madison alongside the rest of Badger nation. Let us know which race you will be participating in- the 8K run or the two-mile run. There is no registration fee, but a donation container will be available for participants to donate to UW Athletics.
Parking is free in the lot on Back Bay Drive; after the intersection of San Joaquin Hills and Back Bay Drive, turn right. The lot is located 0.4 miles into the Back Bay on Back Bay Drive on your left. If the parking lot is full, you can park nearby on San Joaquin Hills Road and walk to the start. Allow yourself 15 to 30 minutes to find parking and a possible walk of 0.5 miles to start (if parking lot is full).
Course Description: It is an overlapped out-and-back course that starts running North East adjacent to parking lot on Back Bay Drive. One mile into the 8K run/two-mile walk is the turnaround for the two-mile walk. After a slight climb to the highest point of the course, at about 3K, you make a left on East Bluff Drive. At 3.5K you make another left onto the Jamboree Bike Path. The 8K turnaround is located directly below the eastern edge of the Jamboree Road overpass. The finish is located just past the start on an asphalt patch that overlooks the Back Bay.
