About the Monterey Bay Half Marathon

The Monterey Bay Half Marathon offers runners a breathtaking journey along California's stunning coastline. Starting in downtown Monterey, the course winds through historic Cannery Row, along the beautiful Pacific Grove shoreline, and finishes with panoramic views of Monterey Bay. Participants enjoy cool ocean breezes, the sound of crashing waves, and possible sightings of sea otters and whales. This USATF-certified course is known for its relatively flat terrain, making it ideal for both seasoned runners aiming for a PR and first-time half marathoners. With enthusiastic crowd support and a vibrant post-race celebration, this event captures the essence of coastal California running.
