Welcome to Santa Barbara Wine Country!

Santa Barbara and the adjoining Santa Ynez Valley offer the ideal destination running experience. Held in early May on Mother's Day weekend, it’s the perfect time to visit this haven for outdoor recreation.

Away from the hustle and bustle of the big city, the area has plenty to offer including beach and ocean activities, historic towns and missions, great shopping and restaurants, and an abundance of wineries and tasting rooms. And you’ll LOVE this scenic course dotted with ranches, fruit orchards, a lavender farm and vineyards as you run from downtown Santa Ynez through Los Olivos into the Danish-settled town of Solvang.

Bring your family and friends to enjoy a weekend full of activities in this bucolic setting and celebrate in style at the post-race Wine & Music Festival in Solvang Park.  Run the half marathon or the two-person relay.  Form a team of six or more.  But be warned....this race awakens the senses and is habit forming. And sells out early!
