The Day

Saturday, August 1, 2026

One long day. Come for all of it or drop in where you can — no one is counting.

  1. 10:30amMeet

    We gather, we say hello, we pretend we are ready to run.

    Round House Café

    Golden Gate Bridge Welcome Center, San Francisco

    Forecast62° and partly cloudy

    Come as you are. Bring a layer; the morning fog does not negotiate.

  2. 11:00amRun

    Two legs. Out and back across the bridge, then an easy downhill to the park. Nobody is racing — walk any of it.

    Full directions for both routes

    Round House Café

    Forecast62° and partly cloudy

    Under four miles all in: 2.6 out and back over the bridge, then 1.3 downhill to Tunnel Tops. A second group joins for the downhill leg, so you can do either one or both.

  3. 12:00pmBrunch + Coffee

    The long middle of the day. Sit down, eat something, let the run wear off.

    Presidio Tunnel Tops

    Presidio, San Francisco

    At the tables — look for Pat and Abby.

  4. In between

    The afternoon is yours. There will be people at Valencia — Madi and Jonah are in town for the weekend — so come by if you like. Or go do your own thing entirely. No pressure, and no rush.

  5. 5:00pmAperitivo

    Spritzes and Italian food. Something bitter, something salty — the best part of the afternoon.

The Run(link to this section)

Two ways to join the fun run

Both start in the same place and finish at the park for brunch. I promise we will run at a very easy pace for both segments — the point is to enjoy the sights and have fun.

Brave the Bridge

Under four miles all in — over the bridge and back, then down to the park.

Be there by10:30am

  1. Meet at the Round House Café, by the bridge, at 10:30.
  2. We set off at 11:00.
  3. Out onto the bridge and back — 2.6 miles, returning around 11:30.
  4. Regroup at the Round House, where the second group joins.
  5. Down the hill to Tunnel Tops together — 1.3 miles.

The Descent

1.3 miles, almost all downhill, straight to the food.

Be there by11:30am

  1. Meet at the Round House Café, by the bridge, at 11:30.
  2. The bridge group gets back around then — wait for them there.
  3. Down the hill to Tunnel Tops together — 1.3 miles, dropping 190 feet.

① Start — Round House Café② Finish — Presidio Tunnel Tops

Both groups finish at Tunnel Tops, where brunch is. Nobody is racing, and walking any of it is entirely fine.
