The Navy’s annual Coronado Bay Bridge Run/Walk will be held May 17, beginning at 8 a.m., bringing runners and walkers across the Coronado Bay Bridge on a four-mile course from San Diego to Coronado.
The race starts at the Hilton San Diego Bayfront and finishes at Tidelands Park.
Road closures and bridge preparations will begin around 3 a.m. on May 17. One lane of the bridge will be closed, while the other will remain open throughout the event. All roads are expected to reopen by noon, with normal operations resuming on other roads by about 1 p.m. Glorietta Boulevard will remain open for southbound traffic; however, drivers should expect delays near Harbor Drive due to construction.
The event is hosted by the Navy Region Southwest Morale, Welfare and Recreation Program and raises funds for Quality of Life programs supporting Navy personnel and their families across San Diego’s military community.
Bib pickup begins at 6:30 a.m., with an additional pickup option available May 16 from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at Road Runner Sports in San Diego.
Parking near the start line is limited. Organizers recommend arriving early or using public transportation, including the San Diego Trolley. Free shuttle buses will transport participants back to downtown San Diego after the race.
A complimentary ferry service is also available from the Coronado Ferry Landing to drop passengers at the Flagship Cruises & Events hub between Broadway Pier and the USS Midway Museum, about one mile from the race start area.
Registration fees vary by age and category. Discounts are available for military members, seniors and children. A virtual entry option is available through May 1, and a “Sponsor a Sailor” option allows community members to cover registration for a service member.
Participants will receive a medal and event T-shirt at the finish line, along with access to sponsor booths and prize drawings. For more information, visit https://www.navybaybridgerun.com/.
