Roads closed early this morning for the annual Pacífico Marathon being held in the city today and tomorrow.
Transit police began clearing cars parked along the Malecón at 3am today and closed the road between Rafael Buelna and Rotarismo at 5am for the start of the 5 and 10 kilometer race. They expect to reopen that section of Av. Del Mar at 10am.

The Malecón will once again be closed to traffic this afternoon beginning at 1pm from Rafael Buelna to the Fisherman´s Monument in anticipation of several events being held early in the evening, culminating with the spectacular fireworks Festival de la Luz show at 8pm which attracts thousands of spectators.

Tomorrow, Sunday December 1, elite athletes will be running the 40k race from Olas Altas to Cerritos.

Transito officials advised that the road from the Shield Monument in Olas Altas to Cerritos will be closed to traffic beginning 2:30am on Sunday. Other roads closures include part of Av. Insurgentes between Av. Del Mar and Av. Reforma, Av. Leonismo Internacional, and Av. Rafael Buelna from Camarón Sábalo to Av. Juan Silveti in Fracc. El Toreo.

The Malecón will reopen to traffic at approximately 1pm tomorrow afternoon.
