The 12th annual foot race started at 6:30 in Balboa Park, so it didn’t take long to reach the first mile marker near Sixth & Robinson in Hillcrest.
Some of the Elvis Presley impersonators who add to the fabric of the race, even stopped long enough to pose for a photo before running the next 25 miles. One Running Elvi was even drinking a can of Bud…obviously these characters were ready to party! Event organizers planned for 20,000 racers to pass through the heart of San Diego, getting around town may not be easy for a few hours. Here’s a slideshow taken along Sixth Avenue north of Pennsylvania. Enjoy!
