07/08 Destination Run – Oakland Redwoods

We’re switching up our regular Sunday run location on July 8th and heading over to Oakland to get a course preview of the Urban Coyote Oakland Redwoods 5K/10K/Half course.

If you’ve never run on trails, or want to preview the course, here’s the chance to do it in a no pressure setting.

We’re going to run for an hour, so thirty minutes on the trails with a double-back to the start location. A water bottle and/or nutrition is recommended.

GPS to: Wayside Parking Lot
Google refers to this as “Wayside Parking Lot, Unnamed Trail, Oakland, CA 94619”

05/20 Sunday Run cancelled: Bay to Breakers

Our regular Sunday run for 5/20 is cancelled due to Bay to Breakers. The bifurcation of the city, race debauchery, and the last corral starting at 8:55 AM will make logistics difficult for people to get to the Warming Hut.

Regularly Scheduled Runs

Join GGRC weekly for the following regularly-scheduled runs:

Track
Wednesday @ 7pm | Kezar Stadium [ map ]

Join us for speed work! We meet halfway down the home stretch – or, at the East entrance of Kezar, when the track is closed.  Anyone can get faster and stronger through regular speed work, whether they are a novice or a former collegiate runner.  All workouts include a warm-up and cool-down.  Many runners meet for dinner and a drink after the cool-down.

Sunday Run
Sunday @ 10am | Warming Hut (Crissy Field) [ map ]

There are a variety of trail and road options available at Sunday Run.  You are likely to find GGRC’ers running distances ranging from 4-20 miles at paces ranging from 7-10 minute miles.  The club gathers between 10:00 and 10:10 to discuss routes and pace (including matching new runners with appropriate running buddies) and leaves the Warming Hut by 10:15.

Driving directions: Follow Marina Street past the Marina and bear right onto Mason Street as you continue to Crissy Field.  The Warming Hut is at the end of the road.

We welcome newbies – you do not need to be a member to join GGRC for a few runs to determine if the club is a good fit for your running needs.
