Tour the campus and preview UCSD’s Triton 5k course with this intricate route! Race pace not recommended (save it for the big day). This is also a fun route for a night run with friends!
Head down through Gliderport, north along Black’s Beach, and up through the Torrey Pines bluffs on this beautiful route! Depending on the tide, a little rock climbing may be involved.
If you’re a fan of flat sidewalk routes with a lot of stops, then this is the route for you! There’s an awesome view of a… freeway. Continue onto Miramar Rd to turn it into a long run.
A mostly flat out-and-back street route through campus, grad housing, and next to Costa Verde. The turnaround point is a fun little park loop! Playing on the playground is optional.
Head up Torrey Pines, but continue up the bike trail to explore a short trail loop! Named after the naturalist whose work founded the Torrey Pines St. Reserve, this trail is nothing short of incredible.
Extend Bike Trail to reach this lengthy trail system along Peñasquitos Creek. Both sides of the creek have trails to explore. See Waterfall for an extension, or Vacation in Poway for an adventure.
Introduce yourself to the Rose Canyon Trail Space with this serene route! We’ll often exit the trail onto Gilman after a mile and a half to head back to school, but feel free to pursue the whole loop!
Run to La Jolla Cove for a chance to see fish, birds, seals, and especially sea lions! The La Jolla Half Marathon finishes here. Taking the bus back is a credible option to halve your mileage.
Continue up Torrey Pines, down a steep incline, and finally into Del Mar for a pleasant long run through the town! Have fun on the hill on the way back! See Oceanside for an ambitious extension.
