This Monday’s run is a hilly but very scenic route up Telegraph Hill. Because I used to love reading those “Choose Your Own Adventure” books as a kid, you also have a choice of going down either the Greenwich Street steps or Filbert Street steps (as seen in “The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill”). From then on to the finish, it’s flat along the Embarcadero and Market Street.
