The event is held at Mt Tamalpais State Park in Mill Valley, California and offers two distances:
- Half Marathon
- 10K
The course runs along coastal ridge trails with a mix of paved roadways and dirt single-track. Runners follow Ridgecrest Boulevard along the spine of Bolinas Ridge, with views of Bolinas Lagoon, the Pacific Ocean and the Marin County watershed. The start is at Rock Springs. 10K runners turn left onto Willow Camp Trail and return along the Coastal Trail. Half marathoners continue along Ridgecrest Boulevard to Bolinas/Fairfax Road and then return via the Coastal Trail.
The race is limited to 300 participants. The course is marked with orange ribbon; a course monitor will indicate the 10K turn and the half marathon turnaround is signed. Aid stations are located at mile 5 for the 10K, and at miles 2.35, 7 and 12 for the half marathon. Food and drink are available at the finish and participants are advised to carry water. Course cut off is 3 hours, with corresponding pace limits noted for each distance. Hikers and walkers are welcome.
