From the organizers
On Mean Girls Day, October 3rd, 2026 he asked you what day it was. You said it’s October 3rd.
Now lace up and run.
Welcome to The Mean Girls 5K, 10K and Half Marathon, a pink powered comedy fueled tribute to the most quotable high school ever. This event brings a little North Shore High energy to the LA River Path, where every runner is either trying to make fetch happen or survive gym class without being personally victimized by Regina George.
Presented by Jed and Ted’s Excellent Races.
Wear pink if it’s Wednesday. Wear sweatpants only if it’s Saturday. Do not wear army pants and flip flops unless you want everyone else to buy army pants and flip flops.
