Tuesday Marina/Presidio Run (4/8/14)

We're launching from outside of Presidio Sport & Medicine located at 1162B Gorgas Avenue. You'll be covering 3-6 miles depending upon your training level.

Here's a link to the course map-

Tuesday's Presidio Run Course Map.

We'll launch from outside Presidio Sport & Medicine and promptly take a LEFT turn on Girard Avenue. We'll follow Girard until we hit Lincoln. Turn RIGHT on Lincoln and continue running into the Presidio.

Continue running on Lincoln past the cemetery to the intersection of Lincoln/McDowell. This is a controlled intersection with a 4 way stop. Continue through this intersection on Lincoln and eventually you will reach the intersection of Lincoln and Crissy Field Avenue. This is 1.5 MILES.

Run on the paved path adjacent to Lincoln and veer left (and uphill) towards the Golden Gate Bridge. You will run around the perimeter of a gravel parking lot and the paved path will curve to the left. Continue running on this paved path.

Roughly 200 meters after passing the parking lot, you will see a MM4 in chalk in the middle of the path. Beginner runners will turn around and head back to Presidio Sport & Medicine for 4 MILES!

Everyone else will continue along the paved path towards the Golden Gate Bridge. Make your way onto the pedestrian side (east side) of the Golden Gate Bridge. continue running until you see a MM5 in chalk on the sidewalk. Intermediate level runners will turn around here and head back to Presidio Sport & Medicine for 5 MILES!

Advanced and Race levels runners will continue for another half a mile until you see a MM6  in chalk on the sidewalk. Advanced runners will turn around here and head back to Presidio Sport & Medicine for 6 MILES!

Race level runners will continue for roughly half a mile until you are nearly across the bridge. Look for a MM7 on the sidewalk. Turn around here and head back for 7 MILES!
