Helping Runners Find Their Next Race — and Save on Registration — Since 2011

RaceGrader was created in 2011 with a simple goal: make it easier for Southern California athletes to find great races.

What started as a comprehensive race calendar has grown into one of Southern California’s established resources for running events, triathlons, cycling events, destination races, and exclusive registration discounts.

Today, RaceGrader connects athletes with hundreds of events throughout Southern California and beyond—from local 5Ks and trail races to major marathons, triathlons, cycling events, and unforgettable destination races.

Find a Race. Save on Registration.

We know race fees add up. That’s why one of the biggest parts of RaceGrader is helping athletes save money on the events they already want to do—and discover new ones along the way.

We work directly with race organizers to offer RaceGrader members exclusive discounts on dozens of events throughout the year.

Whether you’re looking for your first 5K, your next marathon, a challenging trail race, a triathlon, or a destination race worth building a vacation around, our goal is simple:

Help you find your next starting line and get you there for less.

Helping Great Races Reach More Athletes

RaceGrader isn’t just built for athletes. We also work directly with race directors and event organizations to help them reach an active community of runners, walkers, cyclists, and endurance athletes.

Through our email community, race calendar, exclusive discounts, featured events, and social media, we help events increase awareness and—most importantly—drive registrations.

Over the years, we’ve had the opportunity to promote everything from small community races to some of the most recognizable endurance events in Southern California and across the country.

Built for the Endurance Community

RaceGrader began because we love this community, and that hasn’t changed.

It’s the runner giving you a nod on an early-morning training run. The cyclist stopping to help someone with a flat. The stranger encouraging you through the final miles of a race.

Those little moments are what make endurance sports special.

More than 15 years after RaceGrader began, we’re still excited about helping athletes discover their next challenge, helping them save a little money along the way, and helping great events grow.

We’ll see you at the starting line.
