Tuesday Presidio Run (8/27/13)

We're logging 3-6 miles. This is a pretty run through the Presidio, Crissy Field, and a little bit of the Marina (if you're doing 5-6). Here's a link to the course map-

Tuesday Run Course Map

We'll launch from Presidio Sport & Medicine and promptly take a left on Girard Avenue. After running a short distance (1/4 mile) on Girard, we'll run into Lincoln Ave. Turn right on Lincoln.

You'll continue on Lincoln into the Presidio past the San Francisco National Cemetery (it will be on your left) for about 3/4 of a mile until you reach the intersection of Lincoln/McDowell. This is a controlled, 4 way stop. Continue running along the shoulder of Lincoln.

Once you reach Lincoln/Crissy Field Avenue, you will have logged 1.5 MILES. Beginners turn around here and head back the way you came for 3 MILES.

Everyone else will head DOWN Crissy Field Avenue to Old Mason Street. Turn LEFT on Old Mason Street and head towards the Warming Hut. Upon reaching the Warming Hut, you will have logged 2 MILES. Intermediate runners will turn around here and head back the way you came for 4 MILES.

Advanced and Race level runners will continue past the Warming Hut to Hopper Hands. This is 2.5 MIILES. Advanced level runners will turn around here and head back the way you came for 5 MILES.

Race level runners will turn around at Hopper Hands and head back the way you came with a 'slight' wrinkle.

Rather than turning LEFT on Girard to head back to Presidio Sports Medicine, you will continue running on Lincoln which veers left and turns into Presidio. Follow Presidio until you reach the intersection of Presidio & Lombard.

Veer left and continue on Lombard until you reach Lombard Gate. Turn around here and head back to Presidio Sport & Medicine for 6 MILES!
