Live Music Every Mile
Music makes up the heart and "sole" of this event. Live local Bay Area bands will be performing a variety of music from alternative to classic rock, punk, funk and blues to jazz it up.
The bands set the tempo for this 13.1 mile party, where runners and spectators alike will be "Dancin' in the Streets" to these mini-concerts.
