Pac Striders Weekend Run, Sun Aug 24, 8:45, Strawberry Canyon

Hi Everyone,
We thought we would do the Jordan Trail behind the UC Campus, leaving from the parking lot near the softball field and pool. The route has some steep climbing to start, but the reward is great views over the bay. As an out and back run, it is easy to adjust the distance.

Directions

From I-80, exit at University Avenue. Proceed east on University Avenue then turn left on Oxford. Turn right on Hearst and go up the hill, then turn right on Gayley. Turn left at the stop sign onto Stadium Way. and left again on Centennial Dr., which proceeds eastward up the hill from the back side of the stadium. Shortly, you'll see the Haas Pool/Clubhouse parking lot on your right. From Hwy. 24 take Hwy. 13 North. Follow 13 North all the way into Berkeley, where it eventually becomes Ashby Ave. Proceed on Ashby, then turn right on College. Turn right onto Dwight Way, go up the hill and turn left onto Prospect. Proceed around the stadium (keeping it to your left) to the first stop sign. Turn right onto Centennial Drive. Shortly, you'll see the Haas Pool/Clubhouse parking lot on your right.
Have a good weekend,
Mike
