Always Hope Easter Run 5K/10K/13.1 SAN FRANCISCO

Always Hope Easter Run 5K/10K/13.1 SAN FRANCISCO is held in San Francisco, California, on March 27, 2027, with a shared 7:30 a.m. start for the half marathon (13.1 miles), the 10K (6.2 miles), the 5K (3.1 miles) and a one-mile Family Fun Run.

Bay Area mornings in March tend to be cool and damp, which is comfortable racing weather once you are moving but chilly while you wait, so keep a throwaway layer for the start. A half marathon here works as either a standalone goal or a checkpoint inside a longer build. Give it 12 weeks, keep one long run in each week and add a weekly tempo run of three to five miles at controlled effort to hold pace late in the race.
