Sue Clarke
I love the personal reward from this 5k BE THE LIGHT event...not only the fun and great experience but the cause that it stands for. To help those in life who feel lost and a void in their heart...that we as a community can come together in unity to support each other in some way. Keep the events going...it truly has a purpose and most of all such fun. A light to shine for always.

I love how this race starts at night. I can get very creativity with my workout wear adding glow sticks, a bright neon vests to light the pathway to the finish line.
Lori ONeil
My husband and I had such a GREAT TIME! The course was easy to run on even in the dark places. All the participants were so festive and happy! Loved it!
Lori Kozik
This nighttime race never disappoints! I love the small town feel, with the great charity connection, but most of all that it takes place at night with all the light tunnels at the finish and the racers with all their lit up gear. If you can walk 3 miles you should try this at least once. Very family friendly!
Suzanne Ridgewell
This was our first time joining in on this event and we were super glad that we did. It felt good to actively support a worthy cause. We were also very impressed by how the area was cleaned up by the next day! We went for a bike ride over the same ground that we walked the night before, and we were expecting to see lots of trash left behind with so many people and so much stuff being carried and waved around. But to our complete surprise and total appreciation, the area was spotless! Even everything tied to the fences was taken down. Kudos to the organizers!!
Sue Clarke

Be The Light 5k is more than a night race, it's a party! All the runners and walkers all lit up with the fun accessories provided, add to that colorful tunnels at the finish, upbeat music, cheering crowds and a beautiful medal at the end makes for one of the most anticipated events in Santa Clarita all while supporting a great cause.
