Shake it out run

On October 3, 2026, the San Tomas Aquino Creek will come alive with energy and enthusiasm as it hosts an exciting running event. The New Girls Run is set to take place at Souza Park's parking lot on Monroe Street, where participants are invited to gather for a dynamic morning start.
This event promises not only a vibrant atmosphere but also a scenic route along the picturesque San Tomas Aquino Creek. Ideal for runners of all levels, the run offers an opportunity to enjoy the natural beauty and tranquility of the creek while connecting with fellow enthusiasts in a supportive environment.
For those participating in the Runners & Racers (RnR) San Jose 10K or half marathon events later that day, this event serves as a perfect shakeout run. It allows runners to warm up their muscles and get familiarized with the terrain before tackling more challenging distances later on.
The morning begins at 8:30 am sharp, providing participants ample time to stretch, hydrate, and prepare for an invigorating start along the creek's banks. As you make your way through this serene setting, expect a mix of flat and gently rolling trails that showcase the area’s natural charm.
Whether you're looking to kick off a day of running with friends or simply enjoy a refreshing morning run, the New Girls Run at San Tomas Aquino Creek offers an engaging experience for all.
