Pamakid Runners participate in USA Track & Field Pacific Association (PA/USATF)’s annual race series: road, cross-country, and MUT/ultra. These series feature individual and team competition, and most PA/USATF races are partially or fully funded by the club for current members. To learn more about our racing teams, contact our team captains and check out results and photos from our recent races.

The most important thing to know about racing with us is that members of all ages, paces, and running abilities are welcome and encouraged to race. Every runner is valuable to our team. We also encourage and support youth runners—we are the PamaKIDS.

Report Highlight

Knickerbocker 35k Race Report

by Shiran Kochavi

A dozen of us were under a finish-line canopy, sheltering from the rain: the only ones there other than race staff and the occasional soaking wet finisher.  We were chatting, laughing, enjoying Patty’s godly zucchini bread and Christina’s heroin muffins, cheering loudly for every finisher, whether they be green or gentile, when it occurred to us that we had no idea why Chris Jones is always shirtless after a race but we definitely liked it. But let’s back up.
