As in the past few years, let's hold a running BOF.

I propose meeting in the lobby of the Margaritaville hotel at 6:15 for
a 6:30 departure for an hour-long run on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
mornings. I'm assuming breakfast will be 8-9am and sessions start at 9am.
Pace will be determined by whoever shows up.

We're only a mile from the North Lykken north Trailhead.
Other trails are a little more distant. I've been reading
http://www.hiking-in-ps.com/the-north-lykken-trail/ (note this map is
for the south trailhead of the North Lykken trail). I haven't been
to this area in 30 years and I have no idea what the trails are like,
so if somebody has local information, that would be great.

I note that the room rate includes complimentary bicycle rentals. If
we want to, we could cycle to various other local trails.

I'm in unless I'm trying to run in the PM. I've got a tentative run/explore
of one of the slot canyons about an hour away if I can swing it (painted
canyon, ladder canyon, I may have to borrow a car from someone), and would
be nice to try to get up into Mt San Jacinto park as well.

I'm interested in getting some trail and elevation, but I've not run out
there yet and will need to scope out what's possible when I get there.
