Golden Gate Half Marathon & 5K

The Golden Gate Half Marathon & 5K is a Sunday race in San Francisco with the bridge at the center of the day. Runners choose between a half marathon and a 5K, with the shorter distance open to both runners and walkers and aimed at a wide range of abilities. The half marathon crosses the Golden Gate Bridge twice, giving runners long looks at the bay, Alcatraz, and San Francisco from one of the city’s most famous landmarks. The event draws runners from around the world, uses the hashtag #RunTheBridge, and is tied to the Bay Area running community as much as to the bridge itself.
