In preparation for our upcoming December 9 group run / walk, we would like to know the whether you're planning to complete the Full or Half distance, or another distance. This information will help us best support you with aid stations and coaching coverage.
Saturday 4/20/24 will be distances below (following the Carlsbad Marathon Schedule):
- Full = 18-20 mile Train Run (taking Amtrak from Solana Beach to Oceanside & running back)
- Partial Train Run = (16 or fewer miles, but taking the train with the Full Marathoners, see below*)
- Half = 9-11 mile run from Moonlight Beach
*If you choose the "Partial Train Run," you would ride the Amtrak from Solana Beach to Oceanside, but only run part of the distance back south. Running to Aid Station #2 = 8 miles, to Aid Station #3 = 12 miles, & all the way back to Solana Train Station = 16 miles.
NOTE:
- Members that choose this Partial Train Run option will need to coordinate carpools with their friends to get back to their cars if they take the train to Oceanside.
- If not enough members are interested in doing the Train Run, we may have an alternate All Groups Meet instead.
