2024 Presidio Half Marathon Presented by The Guardsmen

The Presidio 10 is now the Presidio Half Marathon! For the first time, the race will feature a half marathon course. The race starts at Crissy Field and runs through the historic Presidio and over the Golden Gate Bridge. Celebrate your accomplishment afterward with our signature pancake and beer breakfast at the finish line. We have an option for everyone, Half Marathon, 10K, and a 5K fun run + walk. Not running this year? Sign up for a post-race expo-only ticket to cheer on that special runner in your life at the finish line where you can all enjoy adult beverages and delicious breakfast to celebrate!

All proceeds go to a great cause, supporting underserved children right here in the city and Bay Area.
