The standard route is 11 miles. You can extend the run along the bike path or shorten the run by making it out and back as far as you like. Water is available at several points along the way (the start, and ~miles 3.5, 5, 7 along the standard loop).

Saturday Run - TOUR OF UCI
Leader: AJ Shaka
Directions: Meet at Chaupain Bakery, 2622 San Miguel Dr., Newport Beach.
About the Run: This is a fun 10.5 mile run with an outer and inner loop around UCI - check out the map link below! From the starting parking lot, we will go down Prairie Road, immediately turning right on Bonita Canyon, passing by St. Matthew’s Church. At Chambord, we cross Bonita Canyon, to run on the other side, with a wide sidewalk at no interruptions. At about 1.5 miles, at the intersection with Anteater Drive, we turn left and head toward the main UCI campus. At California Ave, a left turn leads to a hill climb into University Hills. Staying on California Ave, we sweep around in a gradual arc. California becomes Los Trancos which we take past some new construction to East Peltason. Turn left on East Peltason and run downhill (one side has sidewalk, the other is packed dirt-- take your choice) to the stoplight, Michael Drake.
Taking a left turn, we run along Drake (which becomes Bison) until we reach California Ave (a different one!), turn right and run through the industrial park, until Academy Way. Turn right on Academy Way and then left on West Peltason Drive. Crawford Hall Athletics will be on the left, and a large storage tank with the Anteater mascot will be on the right. Passing the Bren Events Center, take a right-hand turn onto Pereira and run, parallel to Campus Drive, a short distance until the Irvine Barclay Theater and Rose Garden appear on the left. Turn right into the Bus Loop by the Main Admin building (mile 5.7), go up the stairs and then make a counterclockwise loop along the Ring Mall road. We'll see all the main buildings on campus.
After the 360° Ring Mall loop, we continue along Pereira in the same direction, going past the Law School. A left turn (still called Pereira) leads to the intersection with East Peltason. Here we cross East Peltason and then bear left on South Adobe Circle, past the student dorms. South Adobe curves around and meets California Ave where we turn right and then an immediate left onto Arroyo Drive. Graduate student housing is along this segment. At Vista del Campo, a left turn connects us back to Culver Drive. Cross to the other side and then take Culver (which becomes Bonita Canyon) all the way back to Prairie road, where a left turn will lead back to the parking lot where we started. Possible Tour of Lab after run - more info to come.

Directions: 405 north or south, exit Culver, head south (towards ocean), turn right on Campus, turn right on Stanford, turn left into the University Town Center shopping center.
About the Run: Run begins with a half-mile jog along Campus to the San Diego Creek Trail/Mountains to the Sea Trail, which runs parallel to University Dr. From Campus, make a right onto the trail so you can make a quick U-turn and take the underpass down the trail towards the Back Bay. From the Mountains to the Sea Trail, when you reach Jamboree, turn left for the “standard” (clockwise) Back Bay route or right to run the counterclockwise “wrong way Back Bay” route. It’s about 14.5 miles if you run the full Back Bay loop from UCI, and you can easily run any mileage as an out-and-back run.
Since Sunday will be a race day for many club members, most will be doing shorter distances (2-6 miles) by running out-and-back.
After the Run: Lots of breakfast and coffee options in the shopping center, and we’ll meet outside of Peet’s.

About the Run: Any distance is possible, and this description is for about 10 miles. Most of this run is on paved trails, and the dirt sections are wide, smooth fire roads. From the corner of Alicia and Ivy Glenn Dr, run down Ivy Glenn to Niguel, cross and go right. Turn left on Crown Valley (after ~2 blocks), and then after one block, turn right into driveway, and onto trail (the start of the trail is about 30-40 feet away from the road through the parking lot, but is easy to see). Follow the trail past the YMCA and water treating plant. When entering the park at about the 1.5 mile point, go right across a small wooden bridge. Run along the side of the reservoir to the end of the park. At about mile 2.7, after the road starts circling back, make a right on a side road in the park (which will go past tennis courts), and in about 0.5 miles, come to Alicia Pwky. There is a pedestrian crossing light, just up a short way to the left. Cross there and go right for a short distance and then left on AWMA Road. Make a right on the Alicia Creek trail and then go out and back for whatever distance you’d like. The 5 mile turnaround is just past Pacific Park Drive. On the way back, run around the other side of the reservoir, by going right when hitting the circling road in the park.

Time: The run starts at 6:15 PM, so please arrive 10-15 min early to find parking and the group.
Pace and Distance - All levels of runners are welcome to join us. This run is out and back, so the distance is self-set. There are also several different routes available. Some walk, some do walk/run intervals, and some will run the whole distance.
Routes - We'll run out along Peters Canyon Trail taking us into Peters Canyon Regional Park. The route is out and back, so the distance is self set. There are many ways to add more distance. You can do a loop around the reservoir or take the ridge route for some very challenging hills. In case of rain, the Peters Canyon trails may be closed. Run leaders may advise running the “down route” south towards Tustin (as opposed to North to Peters Canyon) with the turn around at Bryan.

Saturday Run - 3 Piers
Leader:
Location: Meet at the Newport Beach Pier. Arrive early for parking (can pay by card or phone at the metered lot or find nearby street parking).
Directions: From the 5 Freeway to 55-S, follow signs to the Newport Beach Pier. Search “Sharkeez Newport Beach” on Google Maps for exact directions to the pier/pier parking lot.
About the Run: This is a club favorite that starts/ends at the Newport Beach Pier and takes us on endless flat miles along the beach! Most of the club will start from the Newport Pier and head north towards the HB Pier for an 11.1 mile out-and-back run, which can easily be shortened or extended for your desired mileage. Another option is to run south towards the Breakers (passing the CDM Pier) for a 5.75 mile out-and back. To get the three piers, you can start before the run to do the 5.75 miles Breakers run, then meet the club at the start to run the HB Pier run together. Restrooms and water fountains are available throughout the run, primarily clustered closer to the HB Pier.
After the Run: There are great deals on breakfast at Baja Sharkeez. Other options nearby are The Helmsman or Charlie’s Chili.

Time: The run starts at 6:15 PM, so please arrive 10-15 min early to find parking and the group.
Pace and Distance - All levels of runners are welcome to join us. This run is out and back, so the distance is self-set. There are also several different routes available. Some walk, some do walk/run intervals, and some will run the whole distance.
Routes - We'll run out along Peters Canyon Trail taking us into Peters Canyon Regional Park. The route is out and back, so the distance is self set. There are many ways to add more distance. You can do a loop around the reservoir or take the ridge route for some very challenging hills. In case of rain, the Peters Canyon trails may be closed. Run leaders may advise running the “down route” south towards Tustin (as opposed to North to Peters Canyon) with the turn around at Bryan.

At the second light, turn Right onto Shady Canyon Road and continue the Quail Hill Route in reverse, with the exception of crossing the 405…DO NOT CROSS THE 405 unless you want to make the run longer. Instead, continue on the Shady Canyon bikeway trail on the west side of the freeway. This merges with University Trail (it’s all one continuous trail, two different names). After you pass the Tanaka Strawberry Farm you run into Ridgeline. Cross the street (obeying walk signals) and go left. Within 100 feet on your right hand side, the University trail continues through an urban park with lots of concrete and tall grass. The trail drops you off onto Culver (which turns into Bonita Canyon Road). This will be a gradual climb all the way back to the Farmer’s Market. Turn left just past the signal at Anteater into the driveway for Mariner's Church.
