ABOUT CARLSBAD RACE TRAINING PLANS
With three distances, what more could you ask for in a MLK weekend race schedule? The races take place along the ocean in Carlsbad, California and feature a marathon, half marathon and 5K distance. Get ready for an amazing roster of races from our friends at In Motion Events.
Billed as the BEST and most scenic winter race with the BEST swag, the Carlsbad races feature miles of breathtaking ocean views and outstanding course support + entertainment. There are distances to suit every runner and the courses feature gently rolling hills along the ocean. The mid-January race means perfect running temperatures and conditions. The marathon and half marathon courses are done as loops, with the start and finish in the same place and maximizing the beautiful ocean views. The 5K starts and finishes in the same place as the other two races, but gets its share of beauty from the Buena Vista Lagoon.
With a custom training plan, runners can be confident to hit their goals in any of the Carlsbad race distances. This could mean finishing the race with a smile, setting your personal record or even trying to win the race. We are here to help you and know you will have a great time at the race with proper training! There is no better way to enjoy MLK weekend than by running the Carlsbad Marathon, Half Marathon or 5K with our friends at In Motion Events.

Our method
-
With the expertise of USATF certified coaches and physical therapists, we built an advanced model to weigh the effects of runner-specific variables on training outcomes.
-
We analyzed unique characteristics of hundreds of races across the country to build a “race profile” into our model that accounts for elevation gain, altitude, time of year, and more.
-
Our model generates a unique training plan for you and your race, and all plans are reviewed by a coach and hand-tweaked before they make their way to you.
