Support Alameda Hospital Foundation at the Fun, Family-Friendly Spring Run

After a three-year break, Outfront Endurance is excited to bring back the Hospital Foundation Spring Run, a fun community event and fundraiser for the Alameda Hospital Foundation.

This year, we’ll be back at our old location at the Harbor Bay Ferry Terminal, with three races for different ages and abilities. The 10K run (6.2 miles) starts at 8:30 a.m., a 5K run (3.1 miles) starts at 8:45 a.m., and a Half-Mile Kids run for ages 12 and under starts at 10 a.m.

All of the races start and end at the Ferry Terminal. Participants will enjoy flat and fast shoreline trails around the Island coast, with beautiful scenic views of San Francisco and the bay.

All participants who register by April 15 will receive a T-shirt, and every participant will get a finisher medal. After the races, there will be music and food for everyone, and awards for all age-group winners.

Alameda Post - a map of Alameda labeled "Island Running Series presented by Outfront Endurance." It includes the dates and locations of the Alameda Hospital 5k, the Island Aquathlon, the 4th of July Parade 5k, the Island Run Restival, and the Midway Shelter 5k — The Alameda Hospital Foundation Spring Run is only the beginning of a year of fun events.

This event will kick off our 2023 island race series and be part of our Island Challenge. Participate in three of our events this year and receive a custom Island Challenge finisher medal at the end of the season. To register and learn more about all our events, visit our OutFront Endurance events website.

Come and enjoy a fun local race with a friendly community feel—and support a great beneficiary, the Alameda Hospital Foundation. The Foundation supports projects and services Alameda Hospital provides to promote quality health care and the well-being of our community.
