Kyle Welch New PARC Shirts

We are planning to coordinate another PARC running shirt order this year. We'll proudly display our NEW LOGO on the shirts! We want a running shirt that will stand out in a crowd, so others will be easily able to spot PARC runners in a crowd (i.e. no white tops!). One option is a bright green top. What do you think of this shirt in lime green with a black logo? …

Ron Wolf Sunday (1/8) - PARC's Monthly Trail Run

PARC's traditional first trail run of the year, in the Santa Cruz Mountains above Saratoga, features spectacular views to the ocean from a surprisingly exposed cliff face as well as many miles of tree sheltered soft forest trail. In most years the waterfall offers a pause early in the run - will it be flowing this year? We have maps to guide an intermediate 6.5-mile route and a slightly more challenging 9.2-mile route -- both routes are quite beautiful.

See the Monthly Trail Run…

Ron Wolf Monthly Trail Run - This Sunday December 4th - Wunderlich Park and Buck's!!

I've just updated the details for this Sunday's trail run. This month, instead of a runner's potluck, we will meet at Buck's after the run. Both Buck's and Wunderlich are in nearby Woodside. To help have us together at the same time at Buck's we are staggering the start times. The long run will start at 8:30 (gather at 8:20) and the shorter intermediate run will start at 9:10 (gather at 9:00). Hopefully these split start times will result in both groups finishing at about the same time.…

Ron Wolf PARC Monthly Trail Run - Mt. Tam (Bootjack), Saturday, August 6, 2011

Consider joining us for next Saturday's PARC Monthly Trail Run. PARC ran the Dipsea Trail last year and there have been many requests to return to Mt. Tam.  Indeed, we have been invited to join the friendly trail runners of BARF (Bob & Rick's Fun runs) next weekend as they enjoy one of their favorite routes on the upper slopes of Mt. Tam. BARF typically turns out 20 or so runners and so we will have… Continue

Ron Wolf Monthly Trail Run Reminder: This Saturday morning - Portola State Park

 This Saturday, PARC's Monthly Trail Run heads to Portola State Park, little visited and remote, where the deep Redwood Forest offers an excellent trail surface, huge trees, lush ferns, and flowing creeks. The Park's geology is also interesting with natural oil seeps visible in some spots. While remote, Palo Alto is the closest large city to Portola making it, in a way, our sister park. Car pooling for this somewhat remote drive is a great idea, so hope… Continue

Brooks Esser Anyone else running Dipsea?

I got into Dipsea - first time I applied for a spot!  Is anyone else from the club running?  Here is a silly question - once the race is done, how do you get back to Mill Valley from Stinson Beach?   Brooks
