Registration
2008 Registration is now open! Register now for the lowest rates.
Registration Steps:
- Add info@runsfm.com to your email address book so you will ensure receipt of your registration confirmation.
- Register for one of the RunSFM events: Full Marathon, 1st or 2nd Half Marathon, 5K, Progressive Marathon
- Join a team – either Cause to Run and raise $ for a great cause, or a friends/family/fun team (join a team during the registration process, or by logging in to your personal page after you have registered)
- Reserve your hotel room! Hotel rooms fill quickly, especially since it is summertime – so book your hotel room early.

Wear Your Number: RunSFM has partnered with WearYourNumber.com - runners can purchase a technical shirt with your bib number printed on it. No more fly away numbers! Dress in comfort for your race. To order your shirt with pre-printed bib number on it, go to www.WearYourNumber.com, and select The San Francisco Marathon or The San Francisco Half Marathon events.
IMPORTANT: To prevent our emails, and your registration email confirmation, from being banished to never-never-land, please add info@runsfm.com to your address book or safe sender lists. In return we promise to be judicious in our communications and not bombard you with unnecessary emails.
