The surrounding area is full of restaurants, retail and a food market. The venue is also just a short cab ride away from downtown San Diego.

Race features include participant t-shirts, a unique finisher medal, goodie bags, five-split timing, and gourmet post-race food and refreshments including craft beer, wine and mimosas.

A unique 2-loop course allows spectators, families, and friends to see participants multiple times during the course of the event, as well as at the finish line. In addition to the beautiful views of the downtown skyline and San Diego Bay, there are restaurants, coffee shops, hotels, a children’s playground, additional park space, and additional shopping opportunities within walking distance of the start/finish area.
