This morning Lisa, Jake and I coursemarked part of the LG Overgrown Fatass 50K. Here are some Garmin Connect fragments of the course.
Start/finish to the Overgrown (Limekiln Trail) and partway
Hicks Road aid station into Quicksilver Park to English Camp flagpole and partway back
On February 26th at 8am we will hold the Fifth Annual Los Gatos Overgrown Fatass 50K. This will go from Novitiate Park (end of Jones Road).
Course: Jones Trail over to the Alma Bridge Road, left on Alma Bridge to the Overgrown Trail (aka Limekiln Trail). Overgrown to top of Mount Sombroso and down Woods Trail to Hicks Road. Get aid at the Hicks Road aid station. Grab a drink (preferably alcoholic) before you leave.
Cross over Hicks into Quicksilver and follow the markings down to English Camp. Circle the flagpole and return the way you came.
The course will be well marked. But see the map at http://www.openspace.org/preserves/maps/pr_sierra_azul.pdf
Bring at least one water bottle as it is difficult to provide that from Hicks Road back to the finish.
If you aren’t on Facebook, RSVP to adam@rhomobile.com to indicate your attendance.
We look forward to seeing you on February 26th.
