This is a quick workout I just started doing once a week before work to get back into shape. Beats the monotony of going to the gym!

It usually takes approximately 3 hours roundtrip from La Tuna Canyon. There is one steep uphill section. You can go as fast or slow as you want or jog down on the way back. If you don't feel like going all the way to Verdugo Mtn, you can go back the same way you came. It's pretty difficult to get lost. There's really no shade so make sure you bring water and sun protection.

Please be on time. I will start at exactly 8:00 am because I have to go to work. If you end up coming late and want to catch up, just follow the Hostetter Fire Road, go up the first big uphill section on your left and turn left at the top of the hill :) (It turns into the Verdugo Mtwy)

If anyone is interested & we finish at 11 to 11:30am, we can grab lunch at Joselito's Mexican Food: 7308 Foothill Blvd, Tujunga, CA 91042
