<p>Is there one with one of those elevated tracks?</p>

<p>Lots of BBall, volleyball, and tennis courts. RIMAC has a ton of stuff. </p>

<p>"Is there one with one of those elevated tracks?"</p>

<p>elevated tracks? I'm sorry I don't know what that is. If you mean treadmills that incline, then yes.</p>

<p>How do the basketball courts work? Can you just go up and expect to get a game with anyone there? Or is it different?</p>

<p>"Can you just go up and expect to get a game with anyone there?"</p>

<p>I suppose. It would kind of be weird if you were not at least aquantances. Mostly the games are among friends but whatever floats your boat.</p>

<p>"How do the basketball courts work?"</p>

<p>If nones using it you go there (it helps to have a ball at this point) and just play. You don't need to make a reservation or anything. Unless you want to play indoors and want to kick people off at a specific time.</p>

11

<p>Can you go there expecting to join in with anyone else there? Or do the people on the courts tend to stay in their own groups? Like, do you have to take your own group to the courts to play?</p>

<p>"Is there one with one of those elevated tracks?"
I think this refers to elliptical trainers.</p>

<p>actually what i meant by the "elevated track" was an indoor running track (similar to one in track and field but a little smaller). </p>

<p>they have one at UC davis... so i thought they might have one.
here is a pic but it is small. <a href="http://arc.ucdavis.edu/recreation/4_court_gym.htm%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://arc.ucdavis.edu/recreation/4_court_gym.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>I guess ucsd doesn't have one but running along the beach can't be too bad.</p>
