Coastside Land Trust Habitat Restoration Workday

Coastside Land Trust's (CLT) habitat restoration efforts continue this weekend on the historic Railroad Right-of-Way conservation easement in Half Moon Bay. A herd of 450 goats and sheep have just finished their annual grazing of the property, completing the first step in a long term management plan to increase biodiversity and promote native grasses and wildflowers on the easement. The next step is to remove the trash, recyclables, and other invasive plants that the herd exposed during their grazing. CLT needs your help to conduct this work and make an impact on the beautiful coastal prairie open space. Bring family and friends and enjoy sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean while you help restore a rapidly diminishing habitat on the California coast. 

Half Moon Bay International Marathon Course Tour

The HMBIM Course Tours' goal is to bring runners out to the HMBIM course to share some pre-race excitement, develop running friendships, and get a feel for the course. This has been a highlight of the HMBIM in year's past. Leave your tempo training and race pace runs for another day and settle into Conversational Pace (CP) and enjoy some Coastside miles with new friends.
