About this race
Ocean on one side, the Golden Gate on the other. The hardest part is not stopping for photos. Starts and finishes at the lower parking lot of Baker Beach. Course is a mix of paved road, gravel, sand, and wooden bridge. Get started at Baker Beach, run up the hill, and it IS a hill!, get down to the golden gate bridge, and turn around. The 2nd half promises to be better than the first with a long sweeping return with amazing views of northern SF and Marin.
