CROWN YOURSELF KING (OR QUEEN) OF THE MOUNTAIN!
Join us for our season opener in beautiful Woodside. This is the half marathon that will rocket you towards your spring marathon goal! Limited to 300 participants. NO WAIT LISTS once event fills.
DESCRIPTION | Half Marathon & 5 Mile
The scenic Half-Marathon course may humble you, with its 1,880 feet of climbing and descending - but at the same time, the remarkable surroundings will energize you as you navigate the lush hiking trails of the Santa Cruz mountains. Along the course, you'll be shielded by redwood and oak forests and bordered by sprays of vibrant wildflowers. Your climb will take you just shy of reaching Skyline Blvd. -- Who wants to be reminded of traffic anyway? At the turn-around aid station, you'll be able to fuel up for your descent back into Woodside.
From I-280, take the Hwy. 84/Woodside exit. (Please observe the 25 mph speed limit through Woodside.) Turn right on King's Mountain Road and drive 2.1 miles to the entrance of Huddart Park. Pay the $5 park admission fee at the park entrance and proceed to the lowest parking lot. Follow the path down to East Meadow.
