What began with just 68 runners has grown into one of Southern California’s most anticipated community races—and this year, we’re inviting YOU to join thousands of runners, walkers, and supporters for a day of fitness, fun, and purpose.

Why choose the Brea 8K Classic?

A Scenic Challenge: Enjoy a USATF-certified 8K course through Brea’s beautiful neighborhoods.
Unmatched Energy: Live music, cheering crowds, and a vibrant post-race celebration with local food and drinks.
Impact Beyond the Finish Line: This isn’t just a race—it’s the largest annual fundraiser for Brea Olinda High School’s Instrumental Music, Color Guard, and Choir programs. Your participation helps provide:

  • Musical Instruments & Equipment
  • Sheet Music & Educational Materials
  • Costumes and Props
  • Performance & Competition Opportunities
  • Travel Costs for Showcasing Student Talent

Every dollar raised fuels creativity, collaboration, and discipline—empowering students to excel and enriching the cultural heartbeat of our community.
