Recently we met up with several friends in SF to run the beautiful Marin Headlands trails. Located north of San Francisco, just over the Golden Gate Bridge, this hilly area has great views of the bridge, bay, and the city. Strava link to our 9 mile route can be found here.
There are many loop options available to find your ideal distance, from a short run to ultra.

Stunning coastal views from many sections of the trails.
Most of the trails here are non-technical fire roads. The terrain is hilly with significant elevation change on most of the routes.
Some of these hills are no joke!
Some of these challenging hills are definitely worth the unbelievable views from the top!
Our good friend Toby Silver showed us around on his local trails. Check out his project 50 Shades of Pavement (Instagram | Strava). He is running the entire city of San Francisco, all 1260+ miles and 2612 streets. There are 36 neighborhoods, over 50 hills and nearly endless vistas. He is already 95% there! Read more!

The superior hiking trail in Duluth, MN. Fun, technical trails with awesome views and few people!
I love running the trails in Grand Junction, CO.
My favorite place to run is forest park in Portland.
I love running in the State Park behind my house. It’s shady in the summer, it’s quiet, nature at its finest with snakes, frogs, turtles, birds, foxes, etc. I can go for as long as I want and not see a car or a building….it’s what life should be.

Mountains for me! The sheer awe induced by massive mountains can’t be beat.
I love running at the beach. Boardwalk + breeze + ocean = perfection!
