San Diego, CA
Entry is $63 now and rises to $69 after Nov 2, 2026, so registering before then saves $6.
The course starts near a hotel on the north end of the city and heads southwest, dropping steadily toward the coast. There is one real climb early on, then the route follows a bike path the rest of the way, losing enough elevation overall that many runners treat it as a personal-best attempt. It finishes at a state beach.
