IMPORTANT NOTES:

~ This run is held in conjunction with the Bulldog Course Preview Run; there will be Bulldog racers training on the race course.

~ If you do not plan to be back at your vehicle by 12:15, please do not use the sign-in sheet.

 

RUNNING DISTANCE/TIME:

 

~ Option #1 - 16-miles/25k race course

~~~ Run the entire Bulldog 25K race course for +/- 15.7 miles 

 

~Option #2 - Run for time-on-your-feet up to 22-miles

~~~ Run out for 2h20m; then turn-around and return the same way for 5h00 max 

 

TOILETS: Toilets are available at the start/finish.

Toilet at Tapia Park (mile 13.1) is LOCKED. If you need to "use the facilities", please go off trail and bury your waste; pack out your soiled tissues.

 

WATER: 

 

~~~~ There will be an emergency water stash up at Corral parking lot. Location will be given when you sign in. This stash is intended for the 20-mile runners. Please plan to carry 20oz for each hour you plan to be on the course.

 

~~~~ For those running the 25K loop, when you come into Tapia on the dry side, cross through the creek and come up to the large Tapia parking lot. In the middle of the parking lot there is a water faucet. Hopefully the water will be turned on but you never know. Please plan to carry 20oz of fluids for each hour you plan to be on the course.

 

RIBBONS:  A few surveyor ribbons may been tied at significant turning points but there is no guarantee that the ribbons have not been removed. The ribbons are off to the side so you need to look for them at turns. Best to print and carry the course directions. 

 

FLOUR ARROWS: We do our best to mark the run but arrows are NOT GUARANTEED since they are often tampered with.

 

CREEK CROSSING: Please note; there is a creek crossing between Tapia Park west and Tapia Park east at mile 13.1. Please use the creek to cross; do not use the bridge on Las Virgenes.

 

ASSUMPTION OF RISK:  These training runs are unsupported. There will be little to no course markings; arrows and ribbons are not guaranteed. You are running at your own risk! Please stay with other runners so you are not along on the training course.
