Race Overview:

Support Oakland Tech Students and Programs
Join us for a 5K trail race or 1-mile fun run/walk in beautiful Joaquin Miller Park on November 2, 2025 (end of Daylight savings time.) The course winds through towering redwoods and offers both a scenic stroll for casual participants and a challenging route for competitive runners.

This event is a fundraiser for the Oakland Tech PTSA, which provides invaluable funding for student programs and activities. Every dollar makes a difference for our students. The PTSA supports the Oakland Tech Cross Country team by covering costs for meet entry fees, training equipment, nutrition, and travel — all essential for helping our runners perform at their best.

Oakland Tech Cross Country athletes have a proud tradition of success, with varsity cross country teams winning the Oakland League Championship for three of the past four years. Your participation helps continue this tradition of excellence.

Sign up for the race or make a tax-deductible donation to show your support for Oakland Tech students.
