History of the Red Nose Run Race

The Red Nose Run is sponsored annually by the Low and Slow Running Club of Del Mar, which consists of runners of various ages and running abilities, who have been getting together for Saturday morning runs for many years. In 1992 several members started the Run with one charity, Fresh Start Surgical Gifts. In addition, we added the Semper Fi Fund charity in the last seven years.

The event continues to benefit these deserving non-profit 501(c)(3) charities, and over the years, we have raised nearly $219,000.00 for these two important causes. We raise money for these charities in two ways: an entry fee to participate in the run and soliciting cash/non cash contributions directly from businesses. The non cash contributions (golf clubs, vacations, tours, etc.) are auctioned (immediately after the run), which accounts for a significant amount of the funds raised for the charities.

After the event,we meet in the Poseidon Restaurant for refreshments, followed by door prizes,recognition of 5K race winners, raffle and live auction items and the presentation of contributions to both charities.

It continues to be a very satisfying and enjoyable experience, especially during the season of giving.

Please join us at the event!
