Whole Life Challenge Hike on Sunday, September 23, 11:00AM

Whole Life Challenge participants -- Join us this Sunday for a hike through the Ocean Trails Reserve in Palos Verdes, through the Donald Trump golf course and onto gorgeous ocean bluffs.

• Date: Sunday, September, 23
• Time: 11:00AM to ???
• Where: Ocean Trails Reserve in Palos Verdes. IMPT! There are TWO trailheads. We are meeting at the La Rotunda entrance. Please take a moment to check out the map here.
• Parking: Parking is FREE but the lot is small with limited parking. Please carpool.
• Facilities: There are nice restrooms and a drinking fountain by the parking lot but nothing on the beach/trail. Be prepared for the unknown and unknowable.
• BYO Water, hats, sunblock, food/snacks, camera, beach toys, etc. Throw it in a backpack because schlepping a cooler might not be so fun.
• For fun: If you have beach toys like a football, frisbee, etc., feel free to bring.

We will lead the beginners, families and walkers to the main beach. Hardcore types will follow a coach up and down the switch back trails. There is also a tough switchback trail at the beach so if you have little ones, you can partner up with other parents and take turns up that trail. 

Once everyone gets to the beach, we'll get our 10 minutes of mobility/stretching in and then we'll just hang out, check out the tide pools, throw a frisbee, do sand sprints, eat, and most importantly, relax and have fun.

WAIT! -- did you look at the map? Did it sink in that we're meeting at the La Rotunda trailhead? It's a test.
