Kicking off at Muni Pier's historic Aquatic Park Waterfront, the US Half Marathon cruises through the Marina, Crissy Field, the Presidio and across the Golden Gate Bridge. Runners then return the way they came, crossing back over the bridge to finish where they started. The US Half Marathon is one of the top San Francisco sporting events, thanks to special features for families, a racing expo, and a fun festival at the end of the race that's free for everyone to attend. The schedule for the 2014 half marathon is as follows:
Saturday, November 1 at Herbst Pavilion in Fort Mason Center
