The San Diego Pride 5K is an out and back course, starting and finishing on University Ave at Centre St in Hillcrest. You’ll run/walk west on University following the San Diego Pride Parade route, turning south (left) on 6th Ave. You’ll then enter Balboa Park and just past Quince Ave, you’ll hit the halfway turnaround point. Retrace your route back, north on 6th then east on University, and cross the finish line smiling for all the photos.

The San Diego Pride 5K is made possible through the generous support of our sponsors and Community Heroes. If you or your company would like to be a sponsor or arrange for a corporate team, please check out our Sponsor information here. You can also contact us at priderun5k@frwsd.org
