Race Information
San Francisco’s Bay to Breakers is the oldest consecutively run annual footrace in the world, a staple to the City by the Bay since May 1912. With a starting point near the San Francisco Bay, a few blocks from The Embarcadero, the 12K race runs west through the city and finishes at the Great Highway where breakers crash onto the Pacific Coast’s Ocean Beach.
A quintessential San Francisco experience for over 100 years, the race is interwoven into the fabric of the city and is a true reflection and celebration of life between the breakers and the Bay.
