Pac Striders Weekend Run, Sun Sept 2, 8:30. Lake Chabot Marina

Hi Everyone,
On this Labor Day Weekend, in honor of my son getting his first permanent job in his chosen career, we will enjoy a Sunday run circling beautiful Lake Chabot. Lake Chabot is fitting to this momentous occasion because my son will be teaching at Castro Valley High School, just down the hill from the lake.

Of course, there is a downside to this syrupy tale. I will be helping my son move to Castro Valley tomorrow, so anyone expecting me to lead the charge up Honker Bay Hill may be sorely disappointed. Or, maybe I should say disappointed by my soreness!

Wherever you run or whatever you do, enjoy your weekend.
Mike

To reach the marina entrance from points east, take I-580 westbound to the Strobridge Avenue exit in Castro Valley. Turn right on Strobridge, right on Castro Valley Boulevard, and left on Lake Chabot Road. The Lake Chabot Marina is about two miles ahead on the right.From I-880 take I-238 eastbound to I-580 eastbound, exit at Redwood Road in Castro Valley and go left, go left at Castro Valley Boulevard, and right at Lake Chabot Road. The Lake Chabot Marina is about two miles ahead on the right. From I-580 in Oakland, proceed east and exit at 150th Ave. / Fairmont Drive. Go straight at the first stoplight at the end of the off-ramp and turn left at the second stoplight to proceed east on Fairmont (uphill). Keep going straight where Fairmont merges into Lake Chabot Rd. and the Marina entrance will be on your left.
