Celebrate Love, Fitness, and Fun at the Coronado Valentine’s Day Run on February 16, 2025

January 28, 2025

Join the Celebration with Wedding Vow Renewals, a Costume Contest, and Scenic Races Supporting Local Youth Foundations

Coronado, Calif. (January 28, 2025) /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/  – The Coronado Valentine’s Day Run returns on Sunday, February 16, 2025, offering a perfect mix of love, fitness, and fun. Featuring a 10K, 5K, and 1-Mile Fun Run, this event invites couples, families, and individuals to celebrate Valentine’s Day with an unforgettable experience on scenic Coronado Island.

A key highlight of the event is the wedding vow renewal ceremony, led by beloved Poway pastor Bobby Johnston. Scheduled for 7:15 a.m. before the race, the ceremony offers couples a heartfelt opportunity to reaffirm their love and commitment. Known for his joyous and emotional ceremonies, Pastor Johnston’s leadership last year brought smiles, laughter, and touching moments to couples who renewed their vows.

Adding even more fun to the day is the costume contest for individuals, couples, and groups. Participants are encouraged to get creative with their Valentine’s Day-themed attire for a chance to win prizes and showcase their festive spirit.

To embrace the Valentine’s spirit, all participants can select a relationship status bib to wear, featuring playful messages like ‘Available,’ ‘Taken,’ and ‘It’s Complicated.’ This matchmaking element brings a lighthearted touch, and in previous years, it’s even sparked real-life love stories among runners.

Participants will receive a long-sleeve tiki-themed sun protection tech shirt and a large, heart-shaped medal featuring Michelangelo’s David reimagined as Cupid, making the day both memorable and rewarding.

The event supports two impactful organizations: the Islander Sports Foundation, which encourages youth participation in sports, and the Life Sports Foundation, dedicated to empowering young athletes and promoting healthy lifestyles.

The day kicks off with the 1-Mile Fun Run, perfect for families, followed by the 10K and 5K races. A lively post-race celebration with music and community connections ensures a festive atmosphere for all.
