Understanding the Basics of Pickleball If you're new to pickleball, here's a quick overview.

In today's edition, we’re diving into one of San Francisco’s most popular running spots: The Presidio Trail. Located at the northern tip of the city, Presidio offers a breath-taking running experience.  With a mix of natural beauty and historic landmarks from the national park, the Presidio also delivers gorgeous views of the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco Bay, and the Pacific Ocean. This is a true gem and a must-see site for runners and visitors. The trail features diverse terrain, from forested paths to coastal bluffs and open meadows, making it both a beautiful and varied run. One challenge to keep in mind, though, is the hills! While they can be strenuous, the effort is rewarded with spectacular scenery of the Golden Gate Bridge. Back in August, we chose this iconic location for our very first xCREW running event. We kicked things off at the Palace of Fine Arts with a 5K run, and it was incredible to see everyone pushing themselves and enjoying the stunning scenery. Have y...
