ENCINITAS, Calif., March 21, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Encinitas Half Marathon and 5K, sponsored in part by Herman Cook Volkswagen of Encinitas, is all set for Sunday, March 31, 2019, when passionate runners from all throughout California, the rest of the country and the rest of the world get together to enjoy one of the most breathtakingly beautiful races around.
Runners should meet at the Moonlight Beach parking lot, which is located at 401 C Street in Encinitas, California. This is where the races begin, with the half marathon kicking off at 7:30 a.m., followed by the 5K starting gun at 7:40 a.m.
But the fun starts a little earlier this year, as Herman Cook Volkswagen is also sponsoring a "Lifetime Pass" social media contest. The winner of the contest receives free admission to the Encinitas Half Marathon and 5K for life.
Entering the contest is as easy as taking a picture. In fact, runners signed up for the race – the only people eligible for the contest – can enter into the fray by heading to the Encinitas Half Marathon Expo, which takes place from 4:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Friday, March 29, and from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, March 30, at the Encinitas Community Center, located at 1140 Oakcrest Park Drive in Encinitas.
At the Expo, runners must take a fun photo of themselves with the new Volkswagen models Herman Cook Volkswagen is featuring at the event. Those pictures must then be posted to the runner's Facebook or Instagram with both the Encinitas Half Marathon and Herman Cook VW tagged. The hashtags #CookVWFindYourFit and #EncinitasHalfLifetimePass must also be part of the post.
The winner is set to be unveiled the morning of the race. The lifetime pass is nontransferable and valid for the lifetime of the Encinitas Half Marathon and 5K.
