Easy run in my neighborhood - called Mission Hills. I live in South Mission Hills - today I ran up to North Mission Hills - and it felt like an entirely different neighborhoood. In North Mission Hills, there windy, narrow roads that follow the canyons and hills. In my part of the hood, we are on a grid layout and the streets are pretty wide. Interesting place for an easy run. Had to really pay attention to directions so I didn't get lost!

I'm going to be out your way in a couple weeks... by Torrey Pines for a few days at a meeting. Have you ever run the Penaquitos Canyon trail? I've been browsing around on Google Maps looking for a good spot for a long run while I'm there.

It is a cool trail - but it's not really long enough for a long run. It is basically a 5 mile loop that crosses a waterfall. The trail is mostly dirt but quite rocky in places. And warning that there is also a significant rattlesnake population there because of the dry conditions in the canyon and access to the creek that forms the waterfall (which may be dry now b/c we haven't had rain in a year).

Where are you staying and will you have a car? I can suggest some routes - email me at kristen.marie.anderson@gmail.com

Good to know. I am very, very afraid of snakes. I'll shoot you an email later... thanks so much!
