The fastest road race in Santa Monica!

The fifth annual Lexus Santa Monica 5000 returns on a new weekend in 2010, Sunday, September 12, 2010. We're expecting friendly competition and some family fun.

With a start time of 7:30am for the 5k, 7:45am for the 2.7k, and 8:00am for the 10k, it's early, but not too early! And to top it off, Saint John’s Health Center, which provides 24-hour emergency services to the community, will be the beneficiary of the race.
