Running in San Francisco

Here's a map of great long-distance loop around and through the city. A jog or ride along any section is a delight. Some of my highlights:

• Panhandle to Ocean Beach: Start at the corner of Baker and Fell Streets and run west through the Panhandle, through Golden Gate Park on car-free JFK Drive (4.2mi, 6.75km)
• Land's End to Crissy Field: Start in the Land's End parking lot and head north on the trails. You're going to wind your way around the tip of the peninsula and if it's clear and wonderful views of the Marin Headlands and the [[Running in San Francisco]] Gate Bridge (GGB). Only tricky part is that on the other end of Land's End you're going to pop out into the Sea Cliff neighborhood, run through and you'll reach Lincoln Boulevard in the Presidio. After the end of a long hill climb you'll be rewarded with a dead-on view of the GGB before you descend down into the beautiful Crissy Field beach (5mi / 8km)
