The Lost Coast Storm Runner isn’t just a race — it’s an experience shaped by the elements.
Formerly known as the Shamrock Shuffle, this springtime tradition earned its new name after one unforgettable year of sideways rain, strong winds, and a whole lot of community grit. And honestly? It made the race even better.
March on the Lost Coast can bring calm blue skies and sweeping ocean views… or a full coastal challenge. Either way, you’ll get fresh air, rugged beauty, and a finish line that knows how to celebrate you.
