46th Annual Pumpkin Run by Senior Coastsiders October 20, 2024

Race Day Festivities
NO RACE DAY REGISTRATION!! WE ARE SOLD OUT

Come for the Race, Stay for the Pie!

Worried about parking? Don't be! Senior Coastsiders is selling parking at nearby Shoreline Station for $25! The PTA is also selling parking for $20 in the lots adjacent to Hatch Elementary School on Kelly Avenue (across from Tres Amigos). You can also find parking in the surrounding streets (do not block driveways or entrances to public buildings). Please DO NOT park on Miramontes Avenue between Hatch Elementary and Potter Ave. If you finish early, you may be stuck until the race winds down.The parking lot at Hatch Elementary, where the start and finish for the race is located, is also NOT available. You will have access to parking well BEFORE the Pumpkinhead festival goers (read: late risers) arrive. We think a worm is a pretty lame prize for getting up early... how about a medal, a shirt, a pumpkin and then a festival to celebrate your accomplishment instead?

Walk or run your event and then head over to our friends at the Half Moon Bay Pumpkin Festival and enjoy the remainder of the day. You will experience the joys of fall with friends and family while enjoying specialty brews, arts and crafts, live-streamed football or the baseball playoffs, and yes...pumpkin flavored everything!

Schedule of Events

Photos? Yes, please!

New this year, we are proud to present that we will have professional photographers from Facchino Photography on course and at the start/finish line to commemorate your experience. You can learn more about our professional photographers and what to expect on race day here.

We also have partnered with Beach Break Film Festival, a local Half Moon Bay entertainment company to provide you with a photo op experience for your selfies, 'Us'ies, and other photos at the new Step and Repeat wall created to commemorate your event this year. We are very excited about this partnership and cannot wait to introduce you to our new friends at Beach Break Film Festival.

Food, Glorious Food

After your race replace those hard spent calories by refueling with bagels, fresh fruit, and other goodies. We will also have coffee available
provided by our race partner, Starbucks of Half Moon Bay.

Silent Auction...It's (E)lectric!

Thanks to a generous donation from a neighborhood resident, we’ll have a new Electric Trike on hand for a silent auction!

The Electric XP Trike by Lectric eBikes has a top speed of 14 mph, with a range of up to 60 miles on a full charge. It is also foldable, and comes with a bike lock, cargo package, and bike helmet! To learn more about the trike, visit the website:

Valued at $1500, bidding will start at $700 and the winner will be announced during the awards festivities. Payment and delivery will be arranged after the race; for local coastside residents, Senior Coastsiders may be able to transport the bike to your home.

All proceeds from the silent auction will go towards our programs to support successful aging for older adults living on the San Mateo County coast. The winner of the silent auction need not be present to win. The winner will be announced at approximately 9:30am along with the awards ceremony.
