Runners start the out-and-back course for the Santa Barbara Half Marathon along Shoreline Road, just before the intersection with Loma Alta Drive, overlooking Leadbetter Beach. From there, they’ll run first toward the east and northeast along Shoreline, all the way to the turnaround point on Channel Road, and then head back toward the starting line. Next, they run through the neighborhoods near Arroyo Burro Beach, and then back to Shoreline for the race finish.
