COVID-19 Update

At this time, we are working closely with the City of San Diego, San Diego Police Department, San Diego Parks & Recreation department and other impacted municipal organizations to determine if the Balboa Park 8 Miler can go on as scheduled. While there is no decision yet on events for August, we’re working closely with the city and will communicate with all our participants as we have more information. If changes to the event do happen, such as postponement or cancellation, we’ll immediately email all participants with next steps. Thank you for your patience as we work with local officials on this event!
