Run first, festival after

Sweat with strangers. Walk in with friends.

SurfYogaBeer was started by a Lithuanian kid out of New York. Once a year we bring that to Venice Beach: a 5K through the neighborhood, a Pilates flow to put you back together, and then the whole group heads to Lithuanian Days as one.

Last year forty nine people showed up and most of them did not know each other at the start line. That is the entire point. Second annual is October 10.

No. 01 · The Run

A sexy pace 5K.

Out of Milwood Studios and through Venice Beach. Not a race, not timed, nobody gets left behind. If you can walk it, you can do it.

Distance
5K. About 35 minutes at a social pace.
Pace
Conversational. Find somebody you have never met and run next to them.
Route
Windward and the beach path, back to the studio.

No. 02 · The Flow

Then Pilates, on a mat, in the shade.

Back at Milwood for a flow that shakes the run out of your legs. Beginners more than welcome. You will feel it tomorrow and you will be glad you did it.

Where
Milwood Studios, 940 Palms Blvd, Venice.
Level
All of them. Bring a mat or a towel if you have one.

No. 03 · The Shirt

The merch that gets you in.

Everyone who runs gets the SYB x LT Days shirt. Wear it that afternoon and you walk into the festival already looking like you belong there. It also gets you half off your first beer at the festival.

Included
One shirt per runner. Free, like the rest of it.
Sizes
First come. Get there at 7:30 and pick yours.
First Beer
50% off at the festival. Wear the shirt to Lithuanian Days and your first beer is half price.

No. 04 · The People

Come alone. Leave with a crew.

This is the thing SYB does on six continents, run once a year on a Saturday morning in LA. Lithuanians, not Lithuanians, runners, and people who have not run since high school.

Last year
Forty nine of us, most of them solo.
This year
Bring somebody, or do not. Both work.

Your leaders

Lukas and Matas.

Two of ours on the ground all morning. Find them at check in, they will know your name by the second mile.

After the run

Lithuanian Days, same afternoon.

The longest running Lithuanian festival in the world, and 2026 is the fortieth anniversary. Saturday October 10 and Sunday October 11, 11AM to 5PM, at St. Casimir Lithuanian Parish in Los Angeles. Food, music, dancing, and a few hundred people who will absolutely feed you.

Wear the shirt. That is the whole trick. You show up to a festival where everyone already knows somebody, and now you do too. It is also a coupon: wear it and your first beer at the festival is 50% off.

Festival tickets are sold separately by the organizers. Get LT Days tickets or see the full program at ltdays.com. The morning is our part, the rest of the day is theirs.

RSVP

It is free. That is the whole catch.

No ticket price, no cap, no timing chip. Just tell us you are coming so we bring enough shirts.
