About the race: The race “is a fast and very scenic 8K run/walk (just under 5 miles) which starts in Balboa Park, winds its way down scenic Highway 163, and finishes at Pantoja Park on G. Street in downtown San Diego. After the race, a party complete with treats, entertainment and booths in Pantoja Park awaits, then a bus ride back to your car in Balboa Park.”
We hope to see you there!
