- *ONLINE PREREGISTRATION IS CLOSED!
Participants may still register on race day, but will need to register on-site Sunday morning. Race day registration and participant check-in will begin at 7:00 a.m.
*Please note: all preregistered runners are guaranteed a 2026 Hometown Days Fun Run medal. Medals are no longer available for race day registrations.
Celebrate Hometown Days and show your San Carlos pride at the San Carlos Hometown Days Fun Run on Sunday, May 17! The run kicks off at 8:30 a.m. and features both 5K and 10K options for adults and children—whether you’re running, jogging, or walking, everyone is welcome.
This is a non-competitive community run designed to be fun, inclusive, and a great way to kick off the final day of Hometown Days weekend. While it’s not a certified race, final times will be available for all participants after the run.
After crossing the finish line, keep the celebration going by heading over to the San Carlos Rotary Pancake Breakfast at Les Mundell Grove—a perfect post-run tradition! Register HERE.
Don’t miss a pre-race warmup hosted by Tower Personal Training at 8:20 a.m. in the Central Middle School parking lot!
We have a new route this year! Interested in viewing the course ahead of time? Click HERE to view the official race map.
