Oakland Running Festival

Even if you are a local runner, you may want to consider staying downtown at the Oakland Marriott City Center, our official host hotel for race weekend. 

Oakland will be full of activity as runners from all around the country descend on the city.  With the Health & Fitness Expo taking place on Saturday in the hotel and the early morning race start on Sunday, a leisurely evening and restful night's sleep  followed by a causal jaunt to the startline on Sunday is the perfect formula for a fabulous race.

Here are some additional perks of staying at the Marriott City Center:

• Marriott will offer a Carbo-Load Dinner special in the hotel restaurant on Saturday evening. 
• Runners who book with the hotel under our rooming block will have an extended packet pick up (10pm) in case they are unable to check in and get their race materials prior to the close of the expo at 6pm.  (Pick up location inside hotel TBA.  Sorry, hotel guests only.)
• Marriott is offering a 2-night length of stay rate at $99.00 per night if you book both Friday and Saturday nights. (If you change of stay to less than 2 days after booking, you will be charged the one-day rate of $139) Rate subject to availability.
• Access to the Expo will start 15 minutes early on Saturday for hotel guests staying under our room block.
