About the RunThrough San Francisco 5k, 100k & Half Marathon
The course runs along the Crissy Field waterfront, with the Golden Gate Bridge in view for much of the route. The ground is flat throughout, and the bay, Marin Headlands, and Alcatraz sit across the water as you run. Several distance options mean you can choose how long you are out there, from a short loop to a half marathon.
There are minimum age requirements for each distance, so it is worth checking those before signing up younger runners. The start area is right at the waterfront, which means easy orientation when you arrive.
