5/8/2011 - Trail run review,Malibu Creek State Park,California.
Fairly easy run, no steep climbs not very technical. Full review of the run is below, run is about 10 miles mostly on fire roads and single track trails and some parts on road:
Distance: 10.67 miles
Course:The run starts at the intersection of Mullholland and Las Virgenes. Run west about 300ft and turn left to the unpaved road that leads into Malibu Creek State Park. Run on Crags Dr. for about ~1.7 miles and make a right to a single track trail that will take you west to Lake Vista Dr (total of ~4.1 miles to this point) run along Malibu Lake and make a left into Crags Dr. and run on it west back to the start line.
Elevation profile: net zero, total elevation gain 1,229ft.
Crowd: N/A
The easy part: No steep hills, not very technical
The challenging part: Can't think of anything worth mentioning... :)
Price: N/A
Pacers: N/A
Timing: Self
Qualifying: N/A
My 2 cents: The single track trails have vegetation growth of up to 7-8ft tall, wear long sleeves if you are sensitiv. Enjoy the views....
