SubscribeAs thousands of people prepare for the Oakland Marathon and Half Marathon later this month, I’ve heard several different conversations and inquires about course recon… by running, bike or car.
I’m running my first long-distance run and figured it’d be neat to see what I’m getting myself into. It seems to be a thought shared among many runners – and anyone who is running the half marathon may be interested to view this virtual preview of the course (via Google Maps).

Aside from offering a street view of the course, it’s just neat technology that continues to mature.
