You’ll start the race at Tecolote Shores, a beach area that overlooks the bay from just south of the Hilton San Diego Resorts and Spa, along Enchanted Cove. From there, you’ll head south and then west along the roads and trails that run alongside the bay, through South Shores Park and then past SeaWorld San Diego.
After you make it across the bridge at Mission Bay Drive, you’ll head over to Ventura Cove Park and then to the residential areas at Mission Beach Park. That will take you up along the beachfront and past Belmont Park, where you’ll pass the Giant Dipper Roller Coaster along the way.
