Minutes. Welcome to mornings on 2, sunday, may 17th, im claudine wong. . Good morning. Im mike mibach. You never know what youre going to see here. And we saw a little of the clouds above the sky. Another school start for those participating in the race today. Yes, youll see jackets to start the morning. Maybe once the race gets going well see jackets shed. In the time being, cool and cloudy conditions. That onshore breeze sticking around for sunday. Heres a live look at the sun trying to shine bright. Not going to happen. Weve got those clouds widespread once again, well inland and we are looking at another below the average day for your temperatures. Giving you a look at the cloud cover. Low clouds, mid and high level clouds also in the forecast today. Right now 55 concord. 51 napa. 55 at sfo. Low 50s in novato. So temperatures fairly uniform and similar to how we woke up yesterday, maybe a tad warmer in areas. I dont think youre going to notice much if youre getting out early, for bay to breakers, cloudy skies, 53 by 8 00. Then notice as we get into 10 00 not a lot of change. Were partly cloudy to mostly cloudy, 55 degrees. So were going to warm a whole 2 degrees over the course of two hours. Then as we get into noontime mostly cloudy skies, mid to upper 50s in the forecast. With San Francisco only getting to about 60 degrees for this afternoon. Take a look at some of the numbers. Downtown San Francisco 60, the closer you get to the water. Upper 50s. 64 redwood city, 65 hayward. Upper 60s concord and livermore. 70 antioch. Those are some of the mild numbers well see today. Temp not going to change a lot as we get into the week ahead. Well finally break out of the pattern. More coming up. San francisco classic, bay to breakers kicks off in an hour from now. The 104th edition. Well have coverage from the start to the hay street hill and finish. We begin though at the starting line. Were joined by the man in charge of this scene. Very popular bay area tradition. Race director bill burke. Good morning to you. Reporter good morning. Remember last year you were delayed about 20 minutes so give me what is going on now. Any delays on the course . Putting on lastsecond touches . Everything is going smooth. There are no anticipated delays. We actually expect an ontime start at 8 00 a. M. Today. 50,000 people are expected to participate. What is new this year compared to last year . Just looking at some of the things that obviously the number of porto potties boosted by 200. What else . Weve got as you said a lot more portopotties. We have an additional sobering station to kind of control the fun and zaniness of the event. Weve got new activation at the finish line of course. The big thinking for the event, a new Title Sponsor in zappos. So theyve come to the table and really enhanced the event in so many ways. The athletes will see that today. Along the race course, and certainly at the finish line. Bill, what do you think, about 20 years ago this race had close to 100,000 participants. Over the years its kind of decreased, 50,000 registered. What do you attribute to the lower. A runners participating this year . I think i think i ran it actually in 1987 and there were 72,000 the year that i ran. It was an iconic event. Still one of the most iconic Running Events in the world. A lot has to do with the support that sponsors and management puts into the event. I have to be candid that new leadership took over the event last year. The entrance went up by 10,000 last year. Entrants. And another 8,000 this year. Its been massive growth in the last two years of bringing this event back to what it was when i was participating in 1987. I think i believe youre going to see a slow resurgence of bay to breakers. And we cannot be more happy for the athletes here today to participate. I think it would be great as well not only for San Francisco but the entire bay area. Do you expect any World Records out there . The temperatures are certainly cool enough. We have an extremely strong mens field today. I dont know if they are going to catch a record but we do expect it to go really close today. Both in the mens and womens race. So the temperatures are relatively going to stay cool most of the day. So i see a lot of athletes that are coming out here to actually race and run. They should run some pretty good times today overall. Bill burke live at the starting line of the bay to breakers. Youre a busy man. I appreciate you taking the time to hang out with us on mornings on 2. Thank you so much. Thank you to San Francisco. Have a great day. You too.

This truly is a bucket list event for any runner out there. No matter where you are in the globe people want to come to San Francisco to experience the race. Even the serious runners are wearing costumes. I would say at least half the field is wearing costumes. Some of the people have been working on that for months. You can tell by the effort they put into it. Reporter the race is known for its funky fun costumes, its definitely one of the draws for the people taking part. Even you heard the organizer mention, even the serious runners make sure they have costumes, some of them do at least. Zappos is the sponsor of the race for the first time this year and they are, for the first time going to be instituting some records, minor records so fun things like apparently theres going to be people trying to break a record for the longest one handed conga line. A couple of years ago instituters had no alcohol policy and no coolers allowed. And according to the rulebook participants are supposed to Wear Clothing but its been my experience covering this, that doesnt always happen. They have added more porto potties to ease concerns of some of the people who live in the neighborhood. This is alamo square here. They have 200 more potties. They have new signs urging people to use them. Lets say. That is a new sign, ive been out here for the last four years covering this race and thats the first time ive seen that sign there. Its been my experience that people do find ways to hide the alcohol, to maybe start out at the race with some clothing on and then lose it along the way so. Well see what happens here. Back to you. Well make sure we keep our camera a little bit alert this morning. Thank you so much. Lets talk about this race route. It begins at 8 00 this morning.
