Tent Alert (and Weekend Stuff)

8/1/2014

0 Comments

 
PictureThe elusive tent captured on film. With bagels.
We are receiving unconfirmed reports that the famous Santa Cruz Track Club Pop-Up Tent has been sighted in the vicinity of Nisene Marks State Park, armed with what appears to be an unwieldy quantity of bagels and some coffee.

Accordingly, we strongly advise SCTC members to bring their friends, family members, and even total strangers to the park for a run this coming Sunday morning (August 3rd). Conditions that morning are expected to favor the capture of the tent, which will be undertaken by a skilled team of SCTC members who have already received specialized training in the art of luring feral pop-up tents by imitating their calls. The team expects to be able to subdue the tent in the dirt lot and have its bagels ready for redistribution to individuals upon their return from the Sunday group run, which will be departing from the same area at 8:30 a.m.

Though feral pop-up tents are known to be elusive, they are not dangerous, so we encourage runners and walkers of all ages, experience, and ability levels to visit the tent. You need not be an SCTC member to partake of bagels or to participate in the group run. We hope you'll join us for this rare opportunity to socialize, eat, and consume caffeinated beverages in the presence of a pop-up tent in the wild. 

In addition to the Sunday run in Nisene (8:30 a.m.), we will hold form drills followed by a track workout at Santa Cruz High School on Saturday (8:50 a.m.). The tent will not be in attendance on Saturday, but Coach Greg Brock will be available to lead the drills and answer any questions you might have.

Return of the Fremont Peak Run!

6/16/2014

Mark your calendars: The Fremont Peak Run has returned! Located in the Gavilan Mountains south of San Juan Bautista, Fremont Peak offers beautiful views of Monterey Bay and the valleys and mountain ranges around it. On Sunday, July 6th, we'll run to the 3,169 ft. summit and picnic at the top. 

This supported, all-uphill road run is a longstanding Track Club tradition. Sag wagons will carry fuel, water, and picnic supplies. The main route is 11 paved miles from parking area to summit, but there are a number of ways to shorten or extend the run if you want to do a different distance. As always, all abilities welcome. Please don't hesitate to call or e-mail Diane Delucchi (delucch@yahoo.com/831-345-9399) if you have any questions, or if you want to volunteer to drive a sag wagon— we'd love to have your help!

Details: We'll meet on Sunday at 7 a.m. at Aptos Station (i.e., the same place we meet for our regular Nisene runs) and carpool/caravan south to the start location for the Fremont Peak climb on San Juan Canyon Road. Bring something to share for the picnic! 

Directions to Fremont Peak State Park: From Highway 101, about 11 miles south of Gilroy, take the eastbound Hwy 156 exit. Go 3.0 miles to a traffic light, then turn right onto county Hwy G-1 (San Juan Canyon Road). You can get a map of the area and learn more about the park here.
