Golden Gate Trail Run 50K
Race Day Weather
Cool start — fast day potential, warming through the race
A cool 49°F at the start line is ideal for fast times — expect to warm up quickly once you're moving. Temperatures rising to 60°F through the course will gradually increase perceived effort in the second half. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing. Moderate humidity at 72% is worth noting for effort level, especially in later miles.

The Golden Gate Trail Run 50K starts and finishes at Rodeo Beach in the Marin Headlands and runs the 30K route plus one more lap of the pink loop. The course is split almost evenly between single track and fire road, with long climbs above the Pacific and views across to the Golden Gate Bridge and San Francisco. It is the longest distance of the Saturday race weekend.
