About the San Diego Beach & Bay Half Marathon

The route traces San Diego's coast in a loop, passing an amusement park, an oceanarium, and stretches of beach before swinging around a bay. The surroundings shift as you run, from open ocean to calmer water, and the course stays close to sea level the whole way with very little climbing.
