Full Marathon

The SLO Marathon is a loop course. The race starts at San Luis Obispo High School and finishes at the iconic Madonna Inn, in between highlighting the incredible beauty of the green hills and open spaces of the Edna Valley. The course starts fast with a loop around the tree-lined downtown center, passing the historic Fremont Theater and City Courthouse, Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa and turn-of-the-century architecture before heading into the rolling hills, vineyards and farmland of the valley. Upon return, participants head back into the town center to the spectator friendly finish line at the basin of the Cerro San Luis Obispo Morro, Madonna Inn and The SLO Life Expo. The Marathon race starts at 250 ft. above sea level then covers a couple of easy grade hills, some gradual rolling hills only as high as 375 ft. above sea level and finishes flat and downhill at 175 ft. above sea level.
