Rebuilding LA from the wildfires is an ultra-marathon, not a sprint.

Altadena to the Palisades

An ultra-marathon relay to rebuild LA.

Silver Lake Track Club is back with year two of Altadena to the Palisades. This annual fundraiser takes runners and bikers on a 50k journey through LA, connecting the two areas most impacted by the 2025 wildfires – Altadena and the Palisades.

Run as a team of five, run the full 50k, run whatever segment of the course suits you best, or hop on a bike. This is not a race, but a celebratory expression of movement to reflect and re-energize efforts to rebuild the beautiful city of Los Angeles.

We invite all run clubs, runners, bike clubs and bikers to join us in an effort to make a meaningful and continued impact.

All funds raised will be donated to local, ongoing fire relief and rebuilding efforts making a lasting impact on these communities. Last year we raised over $50,000 (for the 50k distance), and our goal is to top that this year. Rebuilding is a marathon, not a sprint, and Los Angeles needs our ongoing love and support. 100% of sales from ticket purchases will be directly donated to these local non-profits.
