Los Alisos Creek Trail in Orange County? Dana Point to Camp Pendleton? Mountains to Ocean trail in Irvine? Santa Ana River Trail? Boat Canyon trail in Laguna Wilderness Area? Boomer Canyon & Shady Canyon trails in Irvine? Like what there is so far. But OC has a ton of great running and cycling and trail running options. Thanks for all the great ideas.
