Super Fun Post-Thanksgiving Trail Run! (Two Start Times)

Let's burn off the calories together! Join us on a super fun Post-Thanksgiving trail run through Russian Ridge OSP. We will have two start times! For a ~11-12 mile run, meet as at the Russian Ridge main parking lot 8:30 AM. For a ~7-8 mile run, meet us at the parking lot at 10 AM.

We begin the longer route at ~8:30 AM with a run to Skyline Ridge Preserve, passing by Alpine Pond on our way to doing a loop around Horseshoe Lake. By 10 AM, we hope to make it back to the Russian Ridge parking lot to begin a ~7-8 mile tour of Russian Ridge OSP that will take us to Borel Hill with an adventure through Ridge Trail, Hawk Ridge Trail, Charquin Trail and more! We will have a mix of gorgeous, forrested trails, along with some breath-taking views of the Santa Cruz Mountains. FYI, if this is your first time with us, please take a look at our previous run images for what our "conversational-pace" looks like and bring a copy of the map below.

There is a bathroom at the parking lot. Please bring water and food as needed.
