About This Race

The La Jolla Half Marathon is a point-to-point race in San Diego, California that starts at the Del Mar Fairgrounds and follows a scenic coastal route over the summit of Torrey Pines State Park. It rolls atop the Torrey Pines mesa, continues through residential La Jolla Shores, and finishes at La Jolla Cove. A 10K starts at the top of the mesa and bypasses the Torrey Pines climb, and a 5K offers a mostly downhill course over the final 3.1 miles of the half marathon route.
