Oakland Running Festival Trainees. Here is this week's long run/workout
  • 5K - 60 minutes*
  • Novice Half Marathoners - 2 hours 40 minutes or 12 miles, whichever comes first
  • Intermediate Half Marathoners -  12 miles (1 miles warm-up) plus 11 miles on pace
Fitness Forever? - 60 minutes or more. You choose.
 
EVERYONE does a 5 minute walking warm-up. After that you are free to break into your chosen workout style. If you are timing yourself, wait until you reach mile one to start measuring your time/mile.
 
*Depends on your ability - go for at least 40 minutes "pushing yourself". The rest is to increase your time on your feet.

Emeryville Marina - Emeryville

Reply

The Emeryville Marina is one of our favorites. It is truly beautiful, right on the bay with ample parking and clean bathrooms. Please RSVP at meetup.com/gowowteam

Group meets on Sunday, 8:00 AM rain or shine (check site for possible cancellations 2 hours before) in the parking area next to the public bathrooms.

The public bathrooms are about 1/4 mile before the end of Powell Street. Look at the map for details. You'll drive past Trader Vic's Restaurant and curve right (still on Powell). There is free, public parking on your right and left. If you drive all the way to the cul de sac, you've gone too far. Continue around the circle and return to the public restrooms and parking area. The other buildings in the area are all private.

Meet: in the parking area near the public bathrooms, Emeryville Marina Park
Emeryville, CA 94608

Amenities:

    There are public bathrooms with running water
    Ample parking that is free
    Views are magnificent!
