More About SDTC #TrackTuesday

October – June
From late fall until early June (when the end of the Rockin’ ‘n’ Runnin’ Training Program ends), we meet at the track for our workouts.

June – October
Our Metro SD workouts during the late-Spring/Summer months are at beautiful, historic Balboa Park. We meet on the grass near 6th Avenue at Nutmeg Street. You can’t miss us. Just look for the big group of people with short shorts and running shoes on!

Our North County group meets at Discovery Lake in San Marcos. Please be courteous of local residents, and avoid the parking lot at the end of Foxhall. There is ample street parking in the area around the parking lot. We’ll meet at the bridge at the bottom of the hill.
During summer, we start our workouts at 6pm. Please arrive early (~5:30pm) if you would like to warm up on your own. Happy running!

Visitors

You are welcome as a guest to participate in our workouts.  Runners who participate regularly are encouraged to join SDTC.
