We’ll get things rolling with an easy 1/4 mile (approx) warmup run to Jordan Ave. We’ll segue into some range of motion drills and then continue with our run towards Golden Gate Park!
Here’s a link to the course map….
Here’s a description of said course…
-Launch from A Runner’s Mind.
Turn LEFT on Cherry across California Street and continue onto Jordan Ave. Look for chalk arrows/markings.
-Continue on Jordan Ave. to Geary. Take a ‘slight’ left and run across Geary on Stanyan St.
-Follow Stanyan to the intersection of JFK/Stanyan (big, controlled intersection with stoplights)
-Turn RIGHT on JFK and continue running into Golden Gate Park. This is just under 1.5 miles into the run.
-Continue for another 1/2 mile until you reach the intersection of JFK/8th. This is a big controlled intersection (four way stop). This is 2 miles.
-Continue running through Golden Gate Park via JFK. Shortly after passing DeYoung Museum you will see the Rose Garden on the right. This is 2.5 miles.
-Continue running through Golden Gate Park until you run under the overpass and reach the intersection of JFK/Transverse. This is a controlled intersection (four way stop). This is 3 miles. There is a water fountain on the RIGHT side of this intersection if you need to make a pitstop. Continue through Golden Gate Park on JFK. Move over to the LEFT side of JFK.
-Continue running along JFK past JFK/Transverse. 1 mile later you will reach JFK/Chain of Lakes Drive East. This is 4 miles. Beginner level runners will turn around here and head back to A Runner’s Mind for EIGHT MILES!
-Everyone else will continue running on JFK towards the Beach Chalet. When you’ve reached the intersection of JFK/Bernice Rodgers Way, you will have logged 4.5 miles. Intermediate level runners will turn around here and head back to A Runner’s Mind for NINE MILES!
-Advanced and Race level runners will turn RIGHT at the intersection of JFK/Bernice Rodgers Way and continue towards the Beach Chalet (1000 Great Highway at Ocean Beach).
-Turn LEFT onto the Great Highway and run past the Beach Chalet. Roughly 200 meters past the Beach Chalet you will encounter a pedestrian crosswalk cutting across the Great Highway. Look for a ‘RC10’ in chalk here. Advanced level runners will turn around here and head back to A Runner’s Mind for TEN MILES!
-Race level runners will continue running along the Great Highway. At Great Highway/Moraga, there will be a ‘RC12’ in chalk on the ground. Race level runners will turn around here and head back to A Runner’s Mind for TWELVE MILES!
