About this Event
The Presidio Half Marathon, 10K / 5K / Sunday Stroll (Dogs Welcome)
Picture a summer run with coastal air, bright skies, and San Francisco’s skyline in full view. The Presidio Half Marathon is a rare chance to run across the iconic Golden Gate Bridge—an unforgettable out-and-back with panoramic views from start to finish. Your day begins at Crissy Field, winds through the Presidio, and takes you over this world-famous landmark. Our 10K and 5K courses take you on a scenic run/jog/walk along the waterfront!
After you cross the finish line, celebrate with our signature tradition: San Francisco’s largest pancake breakfast, plus live music, local vendors, and a post-race party atmosphere.
