Very scenic course in Golden Gate Park and along the Pacific Ocean. The terrain is mostly flat with gradual grades. The weather can be a challenge. In 2008, when I ran this, it was very nasty weather with freezing rain and wind. Was lucky to finish in under 2 hours, as my hands were numb and bones were shaking!

The first seven miles is in Golden Gate Park, then we run along the Pacific Ocean. You couldn't ask for a more scenic and famous route. Good course and a fun time. I have run this race five times.
