Bay Breeze Half Marathon

What could be more romantic than a fast and scenic 5K, 10K or half marathon by the bay?

Compared to many of the other races staged by the locally-based Brazen Racing group — which hosts road and trail races around the San Francisco Bay Area throughout the year — the Bay Breeze Half Marathon, 10K and 5K is aptly named, the organizers say, as the course is definitely a “breeze” compared to most of its other, hillier events.

All race distances start and finish at the San Leandro Marina Park! Whether you are a frequent race winner or a first-time runner/walker, you've got a lot to look forward to. All participants will enjoy a mostly-flat, easy bayside trail that rarely strays more than a few feet from water. A perfect course for those looking to set a personal record!

All three courses are out and back along the shoreline. Races begin in San Leandro Marina Park and proceed south along the shoreline, into the Hayward Regional Shoreline, turn around and come back to the Marina Park. All courses are on either paved or gravel trails and begin/finish on 80-100 yards of grassy field.
