Runs that Aren't Races in Beautiful Places

Start: Montaña de Oro State Park, Los Osos, CA. The park is six miles southwest of Morro Bay and seven miles south of Los Osos on Pecho Road. Directions.

Course: Montaña de Oro, "Mountain of Gold", features seven miles of shoreline, rugged cliffs, sandy beaches, coastal plains, streams, canyons, and hills, including 1,347-foot Valencia Peak. The views are spectacular, the breezes always fresh, and you are never far from the sound and sight of the sea. (Distances are accurately measured using a Rolatape® surveyor's measuring wheel.)
