Santa Monica, CA
The course starts and ends at North Street Playground, just off the highway on the western side. You pick your distance: a short solidarity walk or a longer run, and the route is mapped out for you either way. The surroundings are Santa Monica, so expect flat ground near the coast and a crowd there mostly for the cause rather than the clock.
