San Diego 200

San Diego 200 - Escondido, CA, October 23 to 26, 2026

The San Diego 200 is a 200 mile endurance run that circumnavigates San Diego County and uses a mix of coastal sections, urban corridors, inland trails, mountains, and desert terrain. The course is organized as a multi-day event and offers a fixed overall time limit of 82 hours to complete the full distance.

This edition is a revival of the original event after a hiatus. The revived race is organized by individuals who previously finished the original course and who drew on that experience when reshaping the route and support model.

Runners are expected to be self-reliant; participants are responsible for their own crew, logistics, and decision making during the event. All entrants are required to have a crew. Crew members may meet runners at any safe location. The first 100 miles pass through populated areas with access to gas stations and stores, while the second 100 miles becomes progressively more rugged with limited options for water and supplies, making crew support more critical in the latter half.

The field will be limited to 24 entrants for this reborn year. Previous completion of a 200 mile race is highly recommended though applicants with other notable accomplishments will be considered. Entry for early bird registrants is listed at $750 plus fees and taxes with early bird pricing extended through May 1. Event profits will be donated to a Native American charity. The event location is listed as 18192 Bandy Canyon Rd, Escondido, CA. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
