The carpool meets at Los Coches park and ride at 5:30.

Sycamore run

Hey everyone,
                       For those of you that are unable to make it to the mountains this Saturday (12/21), I will be running a 21+miler in Sycamore canyon starting at 6:30am. Water is available at the halfway point. We'll be meeting in Santee off of the Mast Blvd exit, just past West Hills high school and before Santee lakes. The run should take about 4hrs.

Christmas Eve Pre-Run Run

This is an add-on to the Christmas Eve Run. If you'd like to get up there earlier for some extra miles, some of us will be running a different loop up towards Oakzanita Peak.  Probably about 8 or so more.  We'll get back in time to launch with the big group at 8:30.

The Pre-Run starts at the same trailhead at 6:30, or meet at the Los Coches Park and ride at 5:45.

New San Diego Trail Running Blog

Scott Crellin and I (Scotty Mills) have decided to create a blog for all who have been included on the past training run email lists.  If you sign up for the SD Trail Running Blog, you will receive or be able to post training runs for you and other members.  The blog will also allow organizers of training runs to post after run recaps along with pictures.   It will serve as a forum to suggest future run possibilities or to link directions for the runs. 

A routine training run post should contain the following as a minimum:
the date, time, and meeting location for the run, the distance options, distances between water replenishment loclaes, and an email to RSVP if the person organizing the run requests it.

The Blog is still under construction so there will be many changes forthcoming.  If you have suggestions, please contact us on the blog or via our emails.  Our goal is to eliminate sending weekly emails but to provide a location for members to check or post future training runs.
