Race Day Photo Tips
📸 Want to look like a legend in your race photos? Here’s how to nail it at Mahalo Miles:
🖼️ Find the Lens
If you see Nina — smile, pose, or throw your hands up like you just crushed the finish line. Don’t be shy!
🙌 Celebrate That Finish
Throw up peace signs, arms overhead, or hit your signature pose. You earned that moment!
😅 Keep Running Through the Shot
Don’t slow down before the camera. Keep that stride strong until you're past the lens — trust us, it makes a difference.
🎭 Photo-Friendly Style Tips
Let your outfit shine! Bright colors, fun accessories, and bold expressions make for unforgettable pics.
🧽 Wipe the Sweat... Or Don’t
Want to look fierce and gritty? Rock that sparkle-sweat. Prefer a polished look? Give yourself a quick swipe before the lens.
💁 Remember: It’s Free
All race photos are 100% free and posted after the event. So go big, go silly, go full Mahalo
About the Course
Our courses are open-pathway routes — meaning they’re held on pedestrian-friendly trails like beach paths, park loops, and river trails. They’re car-free, safe, and full of good energy. Whether you're racing for a PR or strolling in costume, you'll be on a scenic route with no traffic to worry about.
👟 Because these are shared public spaces, you may pass by other walkers, joggers, or casual strollers who didn’t sign up — but that’s part of the CaliFlow charm. Just stay aware and respectful of those around you.
🎧 Pro tip: Save the Metallica for your post-race drive. Please keep the volume low enough to hear voices and instructions around you.
