About the Pulp Fiction 5K
The 5K starts at the opening of the Los Angeles River bike path behind Canoga Park High School and runs 1.55 miles out along the south bank of the river to a snack table, then returns the same way. The course is fully paved and mild, with about 55 feet of elevation change. It is the shortest of three distances that share the same river path, with the 10K and half marathon continuing past the 5K turnaround.
