Portola Run - 11.8 miles (around the loop, not from the Claw)<br><br>One of the longer loops, this run gradually takes a runner up into the foothills and then slowly descends back down to Stanford. The run elevates so slowly that you might not realize that you are climbing a mountain until you reach the top. It's a great way to get in the longer mileage. For a 16-17 mile run, combine the Portola Run with the Arastradero West Run. <br><br>(Notes for the counterclockwise direction: The Portola Run run starts out along the same way Sharon Heights does. Instead of turning on Sharon Park Drive, however, continue on Sandhill Road for about 3.5 miles. Then turn left on Portola Road and follow that for another 3.5 miles until you hit Alpine. Turn left on Alpine and run 4 miles back down to Junipero Serra.)
