The Monterey Bay Half Marathon features an out-and-back course starting in the historic downtown Monterey. Runners will enjoy a scenic route along Steinbeck’s Cannery Row and the stunning Pacific Grove shoreline. Participants can take in breathtaking views of waves crashing against rocky beaches, charming Victorian-era homes, and potential sightings of marine life, including whales, dolphins, and sea otters.

After crossing the finish line, celebrate with family and friends at the Custom House Plaza in Monterey State Historic Park. Enjoy a complimentary beer and watch the Awards Ceremony in the post-race Finish Village.
