Welcome
Week 3 Team Training Hike. Meet by the covered bench on northside of parking lot at preserve entrance: 2251 La Honda Dr, Escondido, CA. There are restrooms. Hydration and Nutrition Clinic NOTES will cover how much water and electrolytes to pack, and feeding/eating strategies.
This hike is a roller coaster, short steep hills, followed by long flat stretches. Bring 3 quarts of fluids, snacks and lunch. We are planning to hike 12 miles and be back to the cars by 2pm. If you need to bail out early, there will be several opportunities to do so.

7:30am Mission Trails Park, Clairemont Mesa Blvd trailhead.
(approximate address) Take Clairemont Mesa Blvd EAST from I15 until it ends, park along the street. Meet in the area to the right of the entrance to the foot bridge.
Bring 2 liters of water and a snack, as well as your hiking gear.
We will be hiking the Northwest corner of the park, approximately 12 miles, which should take us about 4 hours. In any case, I plan on having us back to our cars by 1pm. This hike will have some short hills, and some flat areas. We are slowly building up our mileage and difficulty. This will be a good cardio workout.
8am: Penasquitos Creek Park. First Group training hike and Equipment Clinic, learn what you will need and what’s nice to have. Most of this trail is flat, but we will take on a hill or two. We are planning on going 9 miles, if you need to be done sooner or just aren’t into yet, you can cut out 3 miles. Should be back to the cars by 1pm.
Bring at least 2 quarters of water and a snack. See Equipment List
