Run Description
This is a loop through the Monrovia Junction, Overland Cove, Thomas Manor and Monrovia Pointe subdivisions. However, part of the loop is an 'out and back'. You can start anywhere on the loop; I've picked a street corner for convenience. Simple variations make this a 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 mile course. The 4 mile course is shown.

Since mile 3 is also the start/finish, you can cut 1 mile by stopping at mile 3. This cuts the 'out and back' to the Old Monrovia entrance to Thomas Manor. You can also cut 1 mile by skipping the loop through Monrovia Point. (I made the course in Google Earth and that section is 1 mile with a few yards. Getting exactly 1 mile required the two cul-de-sacs.) You can add 1 mile by detouring down to the end of the three cul-de-sacs on Redcliffe (Nobelton, Foxboro and Windingham) and to the start of the turn in the Natchez cul-de-sac. Each cul-de-sac extension is 1/4 mile. This addition is not shown on the route.

For 1 mile, go from mile 3 to the finish or run the Monrovia Point loop.

For 2 miles, run from the start to mile 3 and skip the Monrovia Pointe loop.

For 3 miles, run from the start to mile 3 or skip the Monrovia Pointe loop.

For 4 miles, run the course as marked

For 5 miles, add the cul-de-sac extensions.

For variety, when coming back from the 'out and back' you can take Preswick to Natchez--it is the same distance. This doesn't work if you run the course as marked because this moves the start/finish. This is okay for me because I start at my house which is elsewhere on the loop. If you want to start at the marked start/finish point, you can start at mile 3 and go 'out and back' first.
