Race route
Begin your journey in front of the iconic Ferry Building. The sounds of the San Francisco Bay follow you as you make your way through Fisherman’s Wharf to the Golden Gate Bridge. Keep your eye on the prize as the bridge approaches and get your camera ready for amazing pics. Enjoy the spectacular views as your run under the bridge to Fort Point. Your reward for winding your way through the Presidio is a long fast downhill with a view of the Pacific Ocean beyond the entrance to the Golden Gate Bay. Finish up in Golden Gate Park just west of the Rose Garden and reward yourself with a high-five!
