The Low Tide Ride & Stride is Coronado Rotary Club’s biggest fundraiser with a majority of the proceeds going to help support local combat-wounded veterans and first responders. With hundreds of thousands of dollars being donated over the years, the event has become an important to our local military community and first responders.

In recognition of the achievements of the Low Tide Ride & Stride, the event has received both the San Diego Military Advisory Council’s Achievement Award and the Armed Services YMCA Admiral St George Award.

 

So Why the Course Change?

The Low Tide Ride & Stride is the SAME racecourse as the timed training runs that the SEALS use in their BUD/S training!! Even the military must limit their training on the beach during the Least Turn’s nesting season March – September.

We are all protecting the Least Tern’s nesting grounds; these beautiful birds are an endangered species and their numbers continue to dwindle. More than ever, we must protect these nesting grounds. According to the Audubon Society, since 1970 we have lost half of all bird populations globally. By utilizing this race course, Rotary is protecting critical nesting grounds for the Least Tern and Snowy Plover. We are excited about this race course — less hassle, family friendly, and fun at Sunset Park!  We can’t think of a better way to bike, run, walk and celebrate the 26th Anniversary Low Tide Ride & Stride!
