 🎸 Runvana: A Totally 90s Grunge Run
5K, 10K, & Half Marathon

Smells like finish line spirit

📍 5400 E Ocean Blvd, Long Beach, CA 90803
📅 Race Day: Saturday, September 13th

Whether your 90s memories come in flannel and flannel... or slap bracelets and pagers — come as you are.

Runvana isn’t just for the grunge heads. Maybe you were more Neon Moon Shoes than Nevermind. That’s cool. This run’s for all 90s kids — moody, colorful, or somewhere in between.

This throwback race blends the gritty sound of Seattle with the bright, bouncy chaos of Saturday morning cartoons. Expect a finish line celebration packed with 90s hits, plaid and neon fashion, and all the throwback vibes.

Let’s rage against the mileage. Or jog on a plain. Either way — we’ll finish like rockstars. 🤘
