About

The race

Filled with miles of trails over nearly 1,000 acres of marshes, wetlands, meadows and hills, the wild habitat of Coyote Hills Regional Park serves as the perfect counterpoint to the modern, Internet- and iPhone-connected city just across the San Francisco Bay, both of which runners can enjoy at the late January running of the Coyote Hills Half Marathon. Designed as a race to help runners keep their fitness levels up through the doldrums of the winter season, and to offer a course that’s definitely off the beaten path — runners will trek across a combination of dirt, paved and wooden bridge trails on the double-loop route through the park — the Coyote Hills race also offers a welcome change of pace from big-city road race runs.
