The Big Sur International Marathon follows Highway 1 north from Big Sur toward Carmel, crossing Bixby Creek Bridge along the way, with a 6:45 AM start. Highway 1 closes along the course on race morning, so plan around it if you are not running. The Carmel end of the course is about 15 minutes from Scottish Fairway Inn.
