Pac Striders Mar 23, 8:45am - Lone Oak in Tilden Park

It's back to Tilden Park for this Sunday's run. We thought we'd mix it up by doing our Lone Oak route backwards (that is, going along Wildcat Canyon, then up Conlon Trail to Inspiration Point and back). The full route is 8.5 miles, but it'll probably feel like more! Afterwards, you can check out some real Easter bunnies at the nearby Tilden Nature Center.

DIRECTIONS: To reach the start, take the Albany/Buchanan Ave. exit from I-80. From the east, turn left at the stop sign which will put you on a road that you follow for about .25 miles where it curves around a bit and puts you on Buchanan. From the west, a right at the stop light puts you on Buchanan. Once on Buchanan, your head toward the hills. After crossing San Pablo, Buchanan becomes Marin Ave. Stay on Marin. At one point you will hit a traffic circle. Go half way around and turn up the hill to stay on Marin. Turn left on Spruce and continue until the stop sign at the intersection with Grizzley Peak Rd. Go straight through the intersection and take an immediate left onto Canon Dr. Right at the stop sign onto Central Park Dr. then left onto Lone Oak.
