Friendly runners getting together from Half Moon Bay, CA to Pacifica, CA.
Welcome
|
Saturday, May 5, 2012 Miwok 100K was on a new and tougher course, and our running club sponsored a new aid station. Our aid station captains, Denise, Jenna and Jen, had a seriously long day. Thank you to them and all the other volunteers: Mor, Mandy, Rachael, Jaymes, Michaela, Jill, George, Dan, and myself. And we had four runners from the Coastside Running Club who all finished this long and difficult race. Congratulations, guys!
It was a difficult day for many. Of the 354 starters, only 264 finished. |
January 7, 2012 Our Coastside Running Club (CRC) held its second scholarship fund raiser run of the season on Saturday January 7, 2012. Lead by docents, Jenny Feix and George Miller, 20 people of all abilities ran 8 miles behind the normally locked gates inside the Crystal Springs Watershed under sunny skies . This was not a race but a fun, social run. The rolly polly, gravel fire road along the Fifield-Cahill Ridge transects the center of the 23,000 acre Watershed that's been off limits to the public for over 100 years. Even though we were a bit distant, we were treated to two different views of rarely seen Pilarcitos Lake (Half Moon Bay's water supply) tucked high between two ridge tops. Douglas fir and redwood trees lined our route all the way. We will have more of these runs coming up this spring - hopefully a 20 miler too!!! If you'd like to be notified of upcoming events, please join the Coastside Running Club email list. Each May, the CRC awards a scholarship to 2 graduating members of the HMBHS cross country team. 100% of the donations collected at these Watershed runs goes towards those scholarships. We'd like to thank the SF Public Utilities Commission for allowing us this unique opportunity to make these scholarships happen. People are as happy to donate as they are to run in such a beautiful place. We leave footprints and take lots of great memories from these outings. |
Many of us club members played a critical role in the inaugural Half Moon Bay International Marathon (a separate organization). It was a lot of work and it appears to have been a huge success. Many of us also ran in one of the four races. |
July 30, 2011 by George Miller We just finished our first fund raiser run in the Crystal Springs Watershed. It was 13 miles with 18 FANTASTIC people. There was a mix of fog and sunshine but nothing too extreme. We raised $825 today. 100% of everything we generate from this run and the others we'll hold in the next 9 months will go towards a college scholarship for 1 girl and 1 boy from the Half Moon Bay HS cross country team in May 2012. A BIG THANK YOU to all of those who participated!!! |
June 26, 2011 Many of our members volunteered at the Foresthill Aid Station at the renowned Western States 100 mile race. Two members were runners in the race! |
