Runner's NightLife

Thu. 07/26 | 6:00PM @ California Academy of Sciences (map)

Event Details

In honor of the Wipro San Francisco Marathon, NightLife celebrates athletes who hit the pavement to push their limits mile after mile. Learn how to take care of your soles with a talk on foot and grounding massage by the SF School of Massage; stop by African Hall for a deep tissue massage and Jamba Juice sample; and make your own headbands and wristbands with SCRAP. Learn why ostriches are the fastest animals on two feet, clocking in at up to 43 mph. In the planetarium, catch the “Messier Marathon” at 6:30, a look at some of the 110 deep sky objects documented by astronomer Charles Messier, followed by two screenings of Earthquake: Evidence of a Restless Planet. Enter the “Runners Have Soul” fashion contest with your best 60s-70s soul–inspired look. Plus, Academy microbiologist Shannon Bennett will be on-hand to discuss her work with mosquitoes, and to conduct a eyebrow mite survey of NightLife guests. Hint: chances are you have them, and no, you can’t outrun them. But the good news is, they’re harmless! Music by the soul/boogie DJs Gordo Cabeza & Timoteo Gigante (MOM SF).

DJs Gordo Cabeza & Timoteo Gigante (MOM SF)

MOM SF is a Motown inspired dance party which was conceived by DJ Gordo Cabeza in April of 2009, it was born of a desire to reconnect with the music that was often the soundtrack to his childhood. More importantly it was a chance to honor the people and music who helped raise him, especially his mother.

MOM SF, held every Monday, was joined soon afterwards by DJ Timoteo Gigante and a host of other talented Bay Area DJs. It has evolved into a multi-city weekly event including San Francisco, Los Angeles and Honolulu as well as being booked along side many main acts under the moniker MOM DJs at festivals and special events.
