Leader:

Directions: From 405 Fwy, exit Jeffrey and go North 2 lights to Alton.  Turn Left and then Right into parking lot.  Starbucks is close to Ralphs.

About the Run: Cross Alton and Jeffrey, and run on the bike trail towards the 405 freeway. Cross on the pedestrian/bike bridge and continue on the bike trail which parallels the freeway for about one mile to the Quail Hill Trail. The trail has both dirt and paved options as it climbs up into Turtle Rock. Continue on the loop past Bommer Canyon until it hits Bonita Canyon Road and go right. After passing University H.S. turn right into Mason Park and run the paved trail parallel to University Ave. At Ridgeline, go left about 40’ to the light, cross and continue on the trail which will take you back to the pedestrian bridge across the 405, and back to the start. The loop is 11.0 miles (a bit shorter if you finish along E. Yale Loop).  You can easily add on extra miles along the San Diego Creek bike trail before or in Bommer Canyon.  There are three water fountains on the trail.

After the Run: Starbucks, Chronic Tacos, Big City Bagels, and Juice It Up.
