Thousands expected to run at annual SF Marathon next weekend
Thousands of people will hit the streets next weekend for the 48th annual San Francisco Marathon.
State of play: The two-day event features a half marathon, 10K and 5K, in addition to the full marathon.
The scenic courses take runners across the city and past iconic landmarks such as the Golden Gate Bridge and Presidio.
An expo at Fort Mason will be held Friday and Saturday, featuring pre-race activities, vendor booths and a Q&A with Olympian Alexi Pappas. Participants can also join a Puma-sponsored run to test the brand's latest gear.
Between the lines: Expect road closures at the main entrances to Golden Gate Park and in neighborhoods like the Haight, Mission, Richmond and Marina.
