Hello Striders
When: Saturday, July 3
Time: 8:00 AM
Where: Goleta Beach, near the Beachside restaurant.
The address is 5986 Sandspit Rd, Goleta, CA 93117.
After: BYO coffee, tea, other beverage for a social chat.
Two running/walking opions:
Obern Trail - Choose your distance, out and back, on the Obern Trail, and if you feel energetic, run an additional loop around the lagoon.
-or-
Through campus, around the lagoon. The out-and-back route is 3.7 miles.
The lagoon loop route begins from Goleta Beach Park. Proceed up the shared bikeway/walkway/pathway toward Henley Gate, and follows along the ocean bluffs. When the pathway ends at a parking lot, a quick left reorients runners to again run along the bluffs while traversing the length of the parking lot. Veer right at the end of the parking lot and run toward the lagoon.
A series of blue picnic tables will be near the lagoon pathway. Keep the lagoon on your right as you begin the lagoon loop. The only series of stairs (not a long series) you’ll need to climb are at Campus Point (there’s a Campus Point sign). At the top of the stairs, veer right, again keeping the lagoon on your right.
There are several “Keep Out” (or similar wording) signs on the route, but those refer to vehicles. The route is mostly paved pathway with some areas of welcome dirt pathway.
Hope to see you there.
