We are committed to enabling fans to take part in our five road racing events during our 38th running on July 26th, 2015, whether they can attend in person or not. To wit, in addition to our race weekend app, which will offer live runner tracking, live leader boards and race updates, we are thrilled to announce that we are partnering with media and technology platform, USL.tv, to offer live streaming of our full marathon, half marathons and 5K 2015 races.
Coverage will be viewable at USL.tv/thesfmarathon and will include expert commentary, course previews, elite athlete interviews and post-race highlight coverage. With more than 25,000 runners taking part in The Biofreeze San Francisco Marathon’s 38th running on July 26th, 2015, the live streaming coverage of the event will ensure that fans from around the globe will not miss a beat.
Marathon events kick off in the dark, at midnight (PST) on Sunday morning, when the 52.4-mile ultra marathon race begins. By 5:30 AM (PST) on Sunday morning the first waves of elite runners in the Full Marathon and 1st Half Marathon will take to the iconic course, which start on San Francisco’s Embarcadero. By 7:45 AM (PST) more than 2,500 5K runners (and new-this-year stroller division runners with their kids in tow) will start the weekend’s 5K race, presented by Fitbit. As 5K racers complete their challenge in front of the city’s Ferry Building, across the city, at 8:15 AM (PST), in Golden Gate Park, the 2nd Half Marathon will start.
Tune in on race morning to be part of the action, watch leaders progress along the course, hear from elite athletes about course challenges and strategy, and enjoy a view from stunning locations around this scenic, challenging course, and live commentary from the epicenter of this iconic race, the main finish line festival on San Francisco’s Embarcadero.
