That's right, this weekend the neighborhood will be seeing an impact from that other foot race San Francisco does: the marathon.

The return course runs smack down Haight, so first of all, plan on not parking your car overnight or driving through in the morning, and if you want to cross it you'll have to do it Frogger-style. Good news is, the full marathon starts at 5:30 AM, which means the major crush should be well through by the time you're up from your Big Saturday Night. Details about the race course this year are right here, and for you hardcore girls out there, there's still time to register. So go hang out, root for any friends you have crazy enough to run it. The course begins and ends at the Embarcadero.
