Information |
The Primo's 1/2 marathon
is a mostly flat, point to point course. Starting in Danville at 7:30
am (Primo’s Pizza, 298 Hartz Ave.), you wind through commercial and residential
streets. Between miles two and three there is a hill that gains almost
150' of elevation over a quarter mile (Contada Circle and Thornhill Road).
After that it is flat as you continue through the residential neighborhoods
of southern Danville. At approximately mile 7.5 you jump on the Iron Horse
Trail for a straight shot south to San Ramon covering almost 3 miles before
you enter Bishop Ranch. At that point (Norris Canyon Road) the course
connects with the 5K course for the final 3 miles to the finish.
