Details
This year marks the 25th annual running of the Primo's Run for
Education, a half-marathon and 5K road race that benefit the San Ramon
Valley Education Foundation in the town of Danville, a suburb of the
Oakland/San Francisco metropolitan area. Run along a mostly flat course
through the city streets of Danville, this point-to-point half marathon
portion of the race starts at 7:00 AM in Primo's Pizza on Danville's
Hartz Avenue, and winds through both commercial and districts through
the city.
The race sees an elevation gain of about 150 feet between miles 2 and 3
over a stretch of about a quarter-mile, after which the race continues
along flat terrain through neighborhoods in southern Danville. The race
leaves the city streets for the Iron Horse Trail between miles 7 and 8,
for a three-mile stretch until runners get to an area named Bishop
Ranch, where they join the 5K participants for the final miles to the
finish along Norris Canyon Road.
