The Oakland Running Festival is in its second year, and 7,284 runners representing 35 states and six countries registered for one of the weekend’s five races – the marathon, half-marathon, 4-person team relay, 5K, and kids’ fun run – up about 20 percent from last year.
Due to weather conditions and course changes, the Oakland Running Festival’s 5k Twilight Run on Saturday will no longer start at Jack London Square. Runners are asked to meet at the giant finish line in Jack London Square at 6:15 and volunteers will walk everyone just down the path to the new starting line. The race will still start promptly at 6:30.
