We invite your team to participate in our Invitational we would like to continue providing optimum racing conditions and accommodate additional team entries. Our meet will take place on Saturday, September 22th. We will have 3 Divisions: Red,White and Blue with first race starting at 7:30 a.m. Our meet is the longest running event held in Griffith Park and has one of the oldest cross-country records in the Boy's Varsity Race which was set by Richard Erbes in 1985 at 14:10 for the 2.8 mile course. We also take pride in honoring Doug Speck, a giant in our sport who passed away a year ago by naming the boys’ seeded race in his honor. And ALL the races will take place at the Paul Suzuki Starting Line (Paul was a dedicated starter who passed away several years ago in a tragic Track accident).

Dear Friends:
Bellarmine Open 5K Registration Tom LaBonge L. A. City Council Welcome to Griffith Park, the greatest urban park in the United States! I grew up playing in this park and it remains my favorite place to take family, friends and the many visitors to our city. Like Griffith J. Griffith, I believe that Griffith Park ‘must be made a place of rest and relaxation for that masses, a resort for the rank and file, for the plain people’ and that we promote and celebrate this uniqueness-a park for the people. In my desire to share my love of this place, I wanted to produce a map highlighting the park’s many features so that you can learn more about the places to visit and explore. This map is now available at the Ranger Station for you to explore. Griffith Park is a place to love-so enjoy yourselves today!” Open 5k Run On Saturday September 22th, 2012 there will be an Open 5k Race added to the 39th Annual Bellarmine Griffith Park Invitational. This race is open to all non high school athletes. This event is sponsored by A Runner’s Circle and Saucony. |
