Run from Napa to Sonoma with Gretchen! Half-marathons, wine in the plaza and coffee fiends

Run from Napa to Sonoma with Gretchen! Half-marathons, wine in the plaza and coffee fiends

2025-01-14

The Napa to Sonoma Half-Marathon is one of the top runs in the United States, and includes the half-marathon and a 5K fun run, in addition to a food and wine celebration.

 

Local runner Gretchen Schoenstein talks about the race and the route that takes runners from the vineyards of Napa (where you might see a hot air balloon!) past rustic barns to the farms and wineries of Sonoma Valley, ending up in the historic Sonoma Plaza. Gretchen says it is one of her favorite half-marathons, and she should know, as she has completed more than 100 such races.

 

In addition to being a runner, Gretchen talks about her work advocating on behalf of those who have auto-immune disorders and how she raises funds for the Benroya Research Institute. 

 

More information about Napa to Sonoma Half Marathon and Rose 5K is at https://runnapatosonoma.com.

 

Like all of our Sonoma podcast guests she answers YOUR Sonoma questions during "We Get Questions."

This week she takes on:

I’m here for a bit of wine and food indulgence, but I still want to keep up with my exercise routine. What are some good runs to do in Sonoma Valley that have good scenery?

I’m a coffee fiend - can you direct me to some coffee shops in Sonoma Valley - especially in Glen Ellen and Kenwood area?

We’d like to come visit in February or March - what’s the weather like in Sonoma then? Should we come?

 

We Get Questions is brought to you by the Sonoma Plaza Tasting Pass: Save up to 25% off tasting fees and choose three great wineries around the historic Sonoma Plaza. Details at https://bit.ly/SonomaTastingPass

 

Got questions about Sonoma Valley? You can email us at info@sonomavalley.com, text us at 707-996-1090 or contact us through Facebook, Instagram, TikTok or just walk into one of our two visitor centers.

 

It's Sonoma Valley's top podcast and you find it wherever you find fine podcasts, including
