This awesome ‘mashup run’ includes road, trail, hills, epic views, and more!
We’ll get things rolling with an easy 1/2 mile warmup run to Julius Kahn Park from A Runner’s Mind (3575 Sacramento St).
We’ll do some range of motion drills in the park before starting the run.
Here’s a link to the course map….
