Resident & Spectator Information
Most road closures and detours will be in place between 4:00am and 2:00pm on Sunday, February 4th to accommodate the marathon, half marathon and 5K. Roads near the start and finish line near the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and Huntington Street will close earlier to allow crews to prepare the venue buildout.
The race operates as an out-and-back course and streets will be re-opened on a rolling basis. As the last participants pass an area and all course support materials are removed, roads are opened to traffic at the discretion of local law enforcement. Law enforcement will be positioned at major intersections to allow cars to cross the marathon course only during safe breaks between participants. For the safety of all involved, please adhere to posted traffic signs, equipment and directions from law enforcement and course officials. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated
Plan Your Route
Residents, businesses and visitors to the area are urged to plan ahead. Allow extra time for travel due to road closures and traffic delays.
No Parking
Streets along the race course will be marked with No Parking signs. Unfortunately, vehicles in violation of these posted signs will be ticketed and towed at the owners’ expense. Please make sure you are not parked in a temporary no-parking zone.
