California International Marathon
The California International Marathon is a fast, iconic point-to-point race that’s earned its reputation as the #1 Boston Qualifier.
With gentle rolling hills, a net-downhill profile and a flying finish at the California State Capitol, this sun-soaked course has stayed unchanged for 42 years. It’s famous for PRs and bucket-list moments year after year.
In 2025 alone, over 8,000 runners crossed the finish line. If you’re looking for the perfect mix of speed, history and race-day magic, CIM is it.
