Jingle Bell Dash Half Marathon
Race Day Weather
Mild temps, steady run
Runners will face mild temperatures starting at 55°F and rising to 59°F by the finish. With light winds from the ESE at 6 mph, conditions are favorable, but humidity at 61% suggests caution. It's advisable to maintain a conservative pace early in the race, especially as humidity can affect performance. Pre-race temperatures may feel as low as 54°F, so a light throwaway layer could be beneficial.

Race Info
The Jingle Bell Dash is a holiday half marathon, 10K and 5K at Bolsa Chica State Beach in Huntington Beach, California, held in early December. The half marathon is three out-and-back loops of about 4.4 miles on the beach path from Lot 25 on Pacific Coast Highway, with chip timing and a 3.5-hour limit. CaliFlow Runs, a Long Beach race organizer, puts on the event, which also has a kids dash, a costume contest and photos with Santa.
