There are many women (and men) who won&#8217;t get into the hoopla over the big football game, Super Bowl\u00a0 XLVI played at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis on Sunday, February 5, 2012. It&#8217;s deja vu as the New England Patriots and New York Giants meet for the NFL title and a place in history, and\u00a0 tickets are still available with prices ranging from $2613 &#8211; 2800 (superbowl.com).<\/p>\n<p>But many Californians will stay at home after the San Francisco 49&#8217;ers lost their spot in this momentous game. Each year on Super Bowl weekend, there are many marathons, races and runs that take place in California, and some actually travel to California to participate in these events rather than go to the Super Bowl!<\/p>\n<p>Entertainment at California&#8217;s races is lively. In Redondo Beach they have the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seecalifornia.com\/events\/redondo-beach-superbowl-run.html\">parents\/kids buggy run<\/a> where everyone is encouraged to dress in costume. It&#8217;s hilarious. In Davis the annual Stampede brings out a lively, zany crowd, as well. And at the Death Valley Borax Marathon, Sacramento&#8217;s Jed Smith Ultra Classic 50M &#8211; 50K Run, or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seecalifornia.com\/events\/huntington-beach-marathon.html\">Huntington Beach&#8217;s Surf City Marathon<\/a>, the challenges are gargantuan and entertainment includes fiddlers, drummers and surf bands such as the Surftones.\u00a0 Even though California lost its chance to have the next Super Bowl heroes winning team, they&#8217;re not feeling down in 2012. The citizens and visitors to our Golden State say, &#8220;Bring it on!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>CALIFORNIA RACE EVENTS: SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 2012<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>BAKERSFIELD &#8211; Anthony&#8217;s Seeing Is Believing 10K run, 5K run<\/li>\n<li>INYO &#8211; Death Valley Borax Marathon, Half Marathon &amp; 10K 26.2M run, 13.1M run, 10K run<\/li>\n<li>GRANITE BAY &#8211; Fleet Feet Trail Run Series: Six Mile Challenge and 5K Run\/Walk 6M trail run, 5K trail run<\/li>\n<li>REDDING &#8211; Frosty Fun Run 5M run, 2M run<\/li>\n<li>SACRAMENTO &#8211; Jed Smith Ultra Classic 50M run, 50K run, 30K run<\/li>\n<li>VAN NUYS &#8211; Natasha Watley Foundation 5K 5K run<\/li>\n<li>CHINESE CAMP &#8211; Orient Express Run 4M run, 1M fun run\u00a0 Tuolumne<\/li>\n<li>CHINO &#8211; Run For Russ 5K Run and Community Walk 5K run<\/li>\n<li>SAN DIEGO &#8211; Super Run 10K, 5K run, 5K walk<\/li>\n<li>GRANITE BAY The Dirty Duathlon<\/li>\n<li>GRANITE BAY &#8211;\u00a0 The Gumby 10K and 5K Run\/Walk<\/li>\n<li>TRINIDAD &#8211; Trinidad to Clam Beach Run 8.8M run, 5.8M run, 3M run<\/li>\n<li>SAN DIEGO &#8211;\u00a0 Winter Trail Run Series 18K trail run in Cleveland National Forest, CA<\/li>\n<li>PASO ROBLES &#8211; YMCA Super Fun Run 10K &amp; 5K &amp; Kids&#8217; Run<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 2012<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>SIMI VALLEY &#8211; Amanda McPherson Foundation Family Walk &amp; 5K 5K run<\/li>\n<li>CARDIFF BY THE SEA &#8211; Sunday Cardiff KookRun 10K run, 5K run<\/li>\n<li>DAVIS &#8211; Sunday Davis Stampede Half Marathon 13.1M run, 10K run, 10K walk, 5K run, 5K walk, kids run<\/li>\n<li>SAN FRANCISCO &#8211; Sunday Kaiser Permanente San Francisco Half Marathon &amp; 5K 13.1M run, 5K run, 5K walk<\/li>\n<li>WALNUT &#8211; Shar Anderson Memorial 10K Trail Run\/Walk 10K trail run, 5K trail run<\/li>\n<li>SYLMAR &#8211; Sunday SRLA Friendship 18 Miler 18M run<\/li>\n<li>GOLETA &#8211; Sunday Super Bowl 4-Miler 4M run, 4M walk<\/li>\n<li>FOLSOM &#8211; Sunday Super Bowl 5K\/10K Run &amp; Walk 10K run, 5K run<\/li>\n<li>SANTA CRUZ &#8211; Sunday Super Bowl Run 10K run, 3K run, 1K kids run<\/li>\n<li>MENLO PARK &#8211; Sunday Super Bowl Shuffle IV: Menlo Park 5K run<\/li>\n<li>REDONDO &#8211; BEACH &#8211; Sunday Super Bowl Sunday 10K\/5K Run\/Walk 10K run, 5K run, 5K walk<\/li>\n<li>SACRAMENTO &#8211; Sunday Super Bowl Sunday 2 Person Relay 10K relay<\/li>\n<li>SACRAMENTO &#8211; Sunday Super Bowl Sunday Run 10K 10K run<\/li>\n<li>MODESTO &#8211; Sunday Super Sunday Relay 6M run, 6M relay<\/li>\n<li>HUNTINGTON BEACH &#8211; Sunday Surf City USA Marathon &amp; Half Marathon 26.2M run, 13.1M run<\/li>\n<li>SAN DIEGO &#8211; Sunday XTERRA Mission Gorge Trail Run 15K trail run, 5K trail run<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Super Bowl Weekend is all about sports, action, food, fun, entertainment and the runs!
