The race starts and finishes at the intersection of Sanderling and Bayfront Boulevard. The route follows Bayfront Boulevard to the Bay Trail entrance at John Muir Parkway and continues through Hercules toward Rodeo. The turn-around point is located at the end of the trail in Rodeo. Those participating in the 10 km distance complete a double loop of the course. The 5 km and 10 km events are chip timed, and participants must wear their bibs to be scored.
