The run traces the edge of the San Francisco coastline. |
|
Much of the course traces the western edge of the city, offering sweeping vistas of the Pacific Ocean and the Marin Headlands. The terrain includes a small section of beach running and a brief street tour of Seacliff's mansions. Highlights include historic coastal defense batteries, spring wildflowers, hawk and raven sightings, and dramatic displays of serpentine rock. |

We start and finish at the northern end of Crissy Field, adjacent to the San Francisco Bay and across from the Farallones Marine Sanctuary. Directly in front of the starting line are Fort Point and the Golden Gate Bridge; to the right are stellar views of Alcatraz and Angel Island.
This is an out-and-back run along the California Coastal Trail. We'll
pass under the Golden Gate Bridge Toll Plaza to Baker Beach, proceed through Sea Cliff to Lincoln Park, continue on the Coastal Trail to Land's End above the Cliff House, then reverse course to finish at Crissy Field.
In order to minimize ecological damage to the area, enrollment is limited to 200 people.
