Back in the day (90's), the qualifying athlete's airfare, transportation, and hotel were all covered. There was nothing involved for coaches. Athlete's used to be put up in the Hotel del Coronado right on the ocean. They had lots of events throughout the couple of days you were there, dinners, course walk throughs, athlete gatherings, etc. I'm sure a lot has changed since then, but that may give an idea of what is part of the experience.

Good luck this fall!
They still do all that except for staying at the Hotel Del Coronado, which now has a contract with a huge soccer tournament that takes over the entire hotel the week of Footlocker.

Hopefully they still put the qualifiers somewhere nice like another hotel on Coronado or Mission Bay Resort or similar.

Not sure about this year but last year the runners stayed in a nice hotel in La Jolla near the beach and the famous Torrey Pines golf course.

This is correct… Champs paid for the airfare (for the athlete only) and they stayed at the hotel at Torrey Pines. They did a great job of putting together events all weekend and making it a special experience for the athletes.
