Just a block from the race course, Philz is one of precious few establishments that will be open in this section of SoMa on Sunday morning. Stop by for a pre-race coffee, but remember to save time for them to do their languorous, one-cup-at-a-time drip coffee thing. Slow and steady, as they say.

Juice break! Grab a bottle of Pineapple Pear Chia juice from this Hayes Valley vendor of cold-pressed miracles. Maybe an an elixir shot of blue-green algae or a coconut water is what you need as you approach the notorious Hayes Street section of the Bay to Breakers course: You’ll need your strength to get up the hill to Alamo Square.

A house party near Alamo Square is as good a finish line as any. If you’re stopping in the neighborhood to watch the insanity pass by, head to Save-More for a bottle of the good stuff. The store imports an astounding array of whiskey at excellent prices.

Look we’re not going to tell you not to buy cake from Hahdough (that’s between you and your stomach to decide on, during race day) but the much more reasonable — not to mention infinitely more portable — Berliner is available. This German take on the jelly doughnut should help fuel you for a little bit longer, so pick up one, or a few, along the way.

By the time most racers reach the Panhandle, it’s officially drinking picnic time. The Parkside Market people have you covered with beer, wine, liquor, and giant sandwiches that are all around $8 a pop.

Who will notice if you take a quick detour to this adorable Inner Sunset cafe for a hearty bowl, or an herb-y salad? Not many, especially if you take advantage of ordering ahead for pickup via their website.

In case you’ve already strayed from the race course, or the alcohol is maybe starting to catch up with you, you have full permission to dip into the Inner Sunset to load up on carbs or sweets from this outpost of Tartine. Expect many of the same Tartine favorites at this spot, from bread to (again, portable) pastries like the morning bun or a cookie if you’re looking to head back into the race. There’s also larger items, such as salads and sandwiches, in case you want a lengthier break. Food is also available to pre-order, in case you are trying to make this a very brief stop.

Biscuit breakfast sandwiches, avocado toasts, and cold brew await at this potential Inner Richmond pitstop. Look, you earned a break (and a treat). Indoor seating is currently unavailable, but it works out because you were heading back to the course anyways ... right?

None too fancy, Clancey’s is a go-to for all the neighborhood’s sandwich, beer, and wine needs. Whatever it is you order, get it on Dutch crunch and bring it with you on the home stretch to the beach.

It’s high time for that celebratory beer, don’t you think? This outpost from Woods Beer Co., a chain of small-batch brewpubs with fresh and inventive brews, is the perfect place for a toast. But run/walk slow, because they don’t open till noon.

Reward yourself post-run with one of San Francisco’s most coveted brunch menus. The Outer Sunset’s destination restaurant has all the sourdough apple fritters and sticky buns you require, and if you ran fast enough, you just might beat the brunch rush.
