This year was my third year running the San Diego Resolution 15k Run ! It kind of has a special place in my heart because it was the first run I did after running my very first race. In 2013 I ran my first half marathon, my first real race and after that I was determined to make 2014 a year of running so I kicked off the year with the Resolution Run and now it has just become a new year tradition!
In 2014 the Resolution Run went green and gave succulents instead of medals !
The race is held on the Saturday after New Years at a park near Mission Bay ! The race itself isn't too expensive, so there isn't any crazy swag bags or even a free race shirt included in your entry. The race is a great local run to kick off the new year and the course is flat and around Fiesta Island and Mission Bay park so the views are nice !
This years cute gear to purchase at bib pickup! I wish I would have gotten a tank !
Overall if you live in San Diego and are looking for a race to kick off your year of running I'd totally recommend the Resolution Run! A 15k and 5k option on the first Saturday after New Years seems to be a perfect start to a fitness resolution ! Not to mention the post race party has lots of vendors with all sorts of healthy stuff to help your fitness resolution success!
RACE DAY TIPS:
- Exit freeway at Clairmont Drive, make a left on East Mission Bay Drive and park along the road as close to the Hilton as you can! You'll be pretty close to the starting line
- Bring money there is lots of stuff to buy at the post race expo!
- Look for race entry deals on Groupon and 94 ????
