Newport Beach Run + Breakfast @ Helmsman Ale House

✨ Special Edition for our Monthly Beach Run ✨
We are running (and having breakfast) for our runner friend Seila who was recently in a climbing accident and is now paralyzed from the stomach down. We will run 3~5 miles on the Newport Balboa Bike Trail along the beach and afterwards have breakfast at Helmsman Ale House who has generously offered to give a percentage of our sales to Seila's GoFundMe. All levels of runners & walkers are welcome! We'll meet before and after as a group, but feel free to run or walk at your own pace.

📍 Location: We will meet at Helmsman Ale House. There is a parking lot and some street parking. We recommend arriving early and/or carpooling!

⏱️ Time: We will meet up at 7:45AM and start running at 8:00AM, so please arrive 10-15 min early to find parking and the group. We will take a group photo before we start the run :-)

🏃‍♀️‍➡️ Pace & Distance: All levels of runners are welcome to join us. This run is out and back, so the distance is self-set. Some walk, some do walk/run intervals, and some will run the whole distance.

🏃‍♂️‍➡️ Route: We will run down 30th Street from Helmsman Ale House to the Newport Balboa Bike Trail and run toward Balboa Pier.

• 1.3 miles to the basketball courts (2.6 miles total)
• 2.4 miles to Balboa Pier (4.8 miles total)
• 2.8 miles to end of the boardwalk (5.4 miles total)
• Feel free to add more miles!

👟 What to bring:

• Your preferred hydration (there will be a few water fountains along the path)
• Sunscreen (not much shade on this run)
• A good pair of running shoes and comfortable clothes.
• You are also welcome to bring a guest.

Important Note - We constantly have new members join our runs, which is great, but if you plan on joining us please use the RSVP. If you are bringing a guest, please add them as a +1. It gives us a better idea of who you are, how many people there will be, helps us plan in advance, and it also attracts new members.

If you have any questions please feel free to leave one in the comment section.
