Adventure Run (6ish miles)

News

This adventure run includes bison, multiple lakes (for real!), trails, an OCEAN, a little bit of the Sunset district, and some quality time on the Great Highway. In short, this is a decidedly ‘Golden Gate Park’ flavored adventure run. In the immortal words of the (original) Willy Wonka, ‘You’re going to love this. Just love it.’

We get rolling at the Beach Chalet (1000 Great Highway). My car will be available for storing personal items. I’ll also have beverages and snacks for post run festivities. Check out the course map and description below. Really…..CHECK IT OUT…….like NOW! 😉
