About the Santa Rosa Half Marathon

The Santa Rosa Half Marathon is the 13.1-mile race at a long-running Sonoma County weekend. It has its own certified course, later start and sold-out field, making it distinct from the full marathon rather than a simple split option.

Course

The paved route uses the Santa Rosa Creek Trail and Prince Memorial Greenway. Its low-relief profile supports steady pacing, though narrow trail sections and August sun can matter once the field stretches out.

Race-day weather

Late August in Santa Rosa usually favors a cool morning start followed by quick warming. Dry air and exposed greenway miles make early hydration important even when the first miles feel mild.
