This is a challenging but beautiful route starting at the beach in Santa Barbara and climbing through the Santa Ynez mountains to La Cumbre Peak and then back. It is roughly marathon distance (~ 26 miles) and has more than 8,200 feet of vertical change--almost no flat running. 

The GR131 is part of a long distance trail series spanning all seven of the Canary Islands and is part of the pan-European E7 walking route. The route is well signposted and can be tackled in either direction with the traditional route running East to West. While the route doesn't take you up Teide, it won't fail to dazzle as you climb to approx. 2500 metres and take in the spectacular national park. Always pack plenty of food/water but this route will take you through/close to La Esperanza, Aguamansa, El Portillo de Teide, Vilaflor, Ifonche and Arona.
