Description

This local San Diego 5 and 10K is located in central San Diego just minutes from Sea World and runs through Tecolote Canyon right in the heart of San Diego.  The race starts at Tecolote Canyon Nature Center at the end of Tecolote Road and crosses the entire canyon.
 
The trail starts out as a wide jeep road that gradually ascends for the first mile until you can see Tecolote Golf Course on your left.  At this point the trail gets slightly steeper and becomes narrower (single track).  The 5K makes two quick left turns and returns the way they came on a flat and fast 1 mile stretch back to the finish.  The 10K continues on and encounters 2 short steep downhill’s before winding back onto single track trail.  There are a couple of short mild hills to climb while the golf course is still visible on your left.  Eventually the 10K winds east through dense tree cover.  There are a couple of stream crossings (usually dry) before runners turn north and ascend to the turnaround point at Boyd Street.  Runners return the way they came having two short but steep hills to navigate before a flat, fast finish.
