A southbound 18 46th Avenue bus on the Great Highway in February 2015.
Event:
KP SF Half Marathon & 5K
Sunday, 8 a.m.
Golden Gate Park
While many people will be spending their Sunday morning getting ready for the big game in Houston, a dedicated few will be lacing up their running shoes to tackle the most scenic running course in the country — the Kaiser Permanente Half Marathon. This certified 13.1 mile course will lead participants through picturesque Golden Gate Park and out onto the Great Highway for the natural beauty of Ocean Beach. Runners will then head south to the San Francisco Zoo and then back up to the park to hit the finish line on JFK Drive.
If 13.1 miles seems too daunting, then try your hand at the 5K (3.1 mile) race which will be completely contained within Golden Gate Park. All registered participants will receive a finisher medal and t-shirt.
