The Redding Marathon is a Boston qualifying marathon. Enjoy a point-to-point race on paved river trails that wind their way along the Sacramento River. Watch for bald eagles, osprey and other wildlife. The “Shasta Dam to the Sundial Bridge” also includes a 3 person marathon relay and the Sundial 5k for all ages!
The Redding Marathon will take you over Shasta Dam, through an old railroad tunnel and across the historic Diestelhorst Bridge, the Ribbon Suspension Bridge and onto the Sundial Bridge and your finish line.
The Sundial Bridge at Turtle Bay crosses the Sacramento River in the heart of Redding, CA. Open July 4, 2004, the bridge links the north and south campuses of the Turtle Bay Exploration Park and serves as access to Redding’s Sacramento River Trail system.
