What: 20 miles of trails - ridge park down bommer ridge, moro ridge, I think I can/east cut across to the ranger station, up no name to ridge park - twice.
Why: because hills are hidden speedwork/interval training, prep for Santa Barbara & North Face 50k.
Where: Ridge Park (corner of east coastal peak and ridge park road (meet near the parking lot/bathrooms).
Directions: Newport Coast Drive to Ridge Park road to the end - turn right - park.
When: 6:45 is about sunrise. If we can get there by 6:30 and leave by 6:45 that would be great.
Water & bathrooms: ranger station at the school house at the bottom of the hill (near crystal cove) and at the top (ridge park).
Expect this to be about a 4.5-5 hour run. Bring plenty of salt/electrolytes, perhaps a clif bar or snack, and 1 or 2 handheld water bottles, and trail shoes. Because this is such a long tough run we need to start early, especially if the weather warms up.
If you are running and you miss the start try to catch up (take bommer ridge about 3 miles to the sign/painting - turn right to catch us). Cell reception is poor at ridge park and we probably won't be able to wait. Try texting if you are running late.
Thanks. See you tomorrow.
