Wild Rose Half Marathon & 5K

Saturday, May 15, 2027 at 8:30 AM
Parkshore Trailhead, Folsom, CA (near Out of Bounds Brewing)

Wild Rose has a new home. After its first year in Roseville, the race is moving to Folsom for 2027, trading neighborhood bike paths for lake and river views on the trails of the Folsom Lake State Recreation Area. Same easygoing race, better scenery.

  • Half Marathon: An out and back along the river with a popsicle loop at the turnaround, heading downstream to the Old Fair Oaks Bridge off Sunrise Ave and back, with 382ft of elevation gain. Paved, scenic, and still a good one for chasing a personal best.

  • 5K: A single loop on the roads through the industrial park, then onto the bike path all the way back to the start line. Short, fun, and welcoming to runners of all levels.

All Half Marathon and 5K runners will receive their choice of a Wild Rose technical shirt or BOCO running hat, a finishers medal, and a drink ticket from Out of Bounds Brewing (21+). Walkers will receive a finishers medal and a drink ticket. After the race, stick around for raffle prizes from our sponsors.
