Report

Fun route, particularly for a San Ramon (and Walnut Creek at some point) native :). Somebody in solid marathoning shape can definitely cut this time significantly, if they get lucky with the intersections.

  • Chilly December start (watch for ice on the wooden bridges if running in the dark and in the winter, almost slipped here). ~36F at start, ~59F at end.
  • Headed out early (~30 mins before sunrise), on a weekend, to minimize traffic. I managed to avoid any major stops.
  • 4 gels and 1 handheld bottle, on the assumption that fountains would be closed due to the pandemic.
