The Great Race of Agoura was established in 1986 by a group of parents looking to raise money for their children's elementary schools. Now professionally produced by Endurance Events and in its 23rd year, The Great Race of Agoura Hills is one of the largest running events in the Los Angeles area and continues to raise money for eight schools of Agoura Hills and Oak Park.
The Great Race was voted as Best Running Event in L.A. in 2005 and 2006, the Don't Miss Event in L.A. in 2004 and the Best Post Race Party in L.A. in 2002, 2003. 2004, 2005 and 2006. Sign up and you'll experience why The Great Race is truly GREAT. The Great Race is more than just a morning run. Maybe it's the outstanding courses or the exceptional organization or maybe it's the T-shirt or the stuffed goodie bag or the outstanding sports gear at the silent auction and raffle or maybe the plentiful variety of food and refreshments or maybe the professional computerized chip timing or the crowd cheering you on at the finish or the camaraderie of a community event. Different reasons for different people. Come on out and decide for yourself!
