5K Walking/Running Route
Note: This is a narrative companion to the .bmp file, 5K Walking Route.
This is a closed circuit route; you may start at any point, and when you complete the circuit, you have completed 5 kilometers of walking/running. It is a flat route, thereby very good for beginners.

- Go East (right as you face the library doors) on Matador Walk (formerly Magnolia Walk) to the end of the library.
- Go North/left between Oviatt Library and Sequoia Hall (SQ).
- Go West/left at Jacaranda Walk.
- Just past the Arbor Grill, head Northwest (diagonally right) through Cleary Court, between Education (ED) and Jacaranda Hall (JH).
- Walk around Noski Auditorium (NA) to the corner of Plummer St/N. University Drive and Etiwanda (W. University Drive).
- Walk East along N. University Drive. Pass Lindley Ave./E. University Drive. Continue straight, with the Brown Center (BC) and Redwood Hall (RE) on your right.
- When you are past Redwood Hall, go South/right at the access street between Redwood Hall and the East Field.
