  1. Is there a map available on-line showing the entire 53rd Annual Balboa 4 mile Cross Country route? ( Sat, 9/2/2017)

    1. We don’t have one up yet, but look again as we get closer to the race. It is a tough one.

  2. What time does packet pickup start on race day, and where? Where do you suggest for parking?

    1. Bib pickup is likely at least an hour before the first race. Parking is easiest outside of the park on 6th or the surrounding neighborhoods. It’s not a huge race, so finding a spot is not normally an issue.

    1. About half of the race is trail. You can see it called out on the map. Most of it isn’t too technical though there are some hills thrown in there.

    1. We’ve got a bunch from one of the SDTC members that we’ll get up soon. He was at the top of Zigzag hill so that might have been him.

      1. Thanks Jessie! The sun was rising through the trees perfectly so I bet there are some gems in there!
