Leader: Nicole H.

Location: Meet in the Sports Basement parking lot located at 10800 Kalama River Avenue, Fountain Valley.

About the Run: Flat out-and-back along the Santa Ana River Trail. It’s about 12 miles round trip to the beach where there are restrooms, water (and ocean views!) but you can always tailor the distance (or even direction) to your needs.

From Sports Basement, we’ll run down Kalama River Avenue to make a left down Euclid, right down Talbert, then cross over the river trail to the south trail, make a right onto the trail and run westbound towards the ocean. Check carefully for cyclists before turning left onto the trail. There is water at Moon Park along the SART, about 1.5 miles from the start. Restrooms and water are at HB State Park, about 6.5 miles from the start of the run. Continue on the path toward the HB pier. Run as long or short as you like.

After the Run: Snacks and shopping at Sports Basement. There will also be a pickleball court that we have reserved for anyone that would like to play! More breakfast options nearby at SOCO and the OC Mix.
