March Virtual Run &Possible Courses

Trail Running with Some Hills

The month of March has only one race with limited  participation, so we have added a virtual run. It is a bit different, but gives everyone a chance to get out and participate. Find a course with some hills and run about four miles.  I will need time and distance for results along with age and name. Below are some suggestions for great trail runs, but you may use any trail you wish.

Headwaters Forest

This is the Elk River Trail in the Headwaters Forest Reserve.  It is an out-and-back trail located in South Eureka.  The trail is located at the end of Elk River Road.

Avenue of the Giants

The Avenue of the Giants is a fairly long drive for a run, but is one of the nicest running locations anywhere. There are trails in many locations, and the road makes a nice run.

Park and start somewhere near Country Club Market.  Run up Humboldt Hill Road to Kipling Drive.

Humboldt Hill Loop: Tom Martin

Start at Country Club Market. Run up Humboldt Hill Road to Kipling. Rt on Kipling, rt on Bret Harte Lane, lt on Burns. Take Burns to the end. Take short trail to Irving. Run down Irving, lt on Burns, rt on London. From London, go lt on Parkwood, lt down H Hill.   Go lt on Stanford, rt on Purdue, rt on Broadway to start

Patrick's Point: Simona Carini

Simona Carini ran through Patrick's Point State Park, mostly on the Rim Trail for 6.51 miles. 

Arcata Comm. Forest: Jim Childs

Jim Childs ran 5.46 miles through the Arcata Community forest and thought you might like to try the course.

Trinidad Head and Trails

Grace Driscoll ran in Trinidad on a 4.05 mile trail run, including College Cove  and Trinidad Head. It's a beautiful run on a nice day. Don't forget to reward yourself with a latte at The Beachcomber.

South Fork of Janes Creek Trail

Trevor Estlow ran the South Fork of Janes Creek for his Trail Run this month, his first 2021 Circuit Run.  It looks like a nice route in Arcata. 

Arcata Ridge Trail-Richard Engel

Richard Engel suggested this course.  He recommends doing the loop in the direction shown, as doing it the other way would make for some slippery downhill on the single-track section of the South Fork Janes Creek trail, under current rainy season conditions. 4.16 Miles.

Eureka's McKay Track

The McKay Track has a lot of running room.  You can access the trails from Harris Street near Redwood Acres.

Patrick's Point State Park

Patrick's Point State Park has a number of roads and trails.  The Rim Trail is a beautiful run along the rugged coast. It's fairly flat and will have people on the trails, especially on the weekends. The park is located north of Trinidad.

Prairie Creek/Redwood Nat. Park

This is a world-class running, hiking and biking location.  It makes for a nice run rain or shine.  There are many trails to run, but there will be people, especially on the weekends.  The park is located north of Orick.

Rohner Park, Fortuna

This a small park, but has a challenging forest run.  It will take a couple of loops to get four miles, but it is a pretty run. There will be people on the trails.

Sequoia Park, Eureka

This is also a small park and very hilly, but also a pretty run.  There are always people here, but some of the trails can be fairly clear. It is next to the zoo.

The Trinidad Trails

There are nice trails along the coast in Trinidad, including the Trinidad Head Trail.  If you locate a map, you will find that the trails connect so you can easily complete a four-mile run.
