The direction originally provided are for Rendija South but not the Pajarito trailhead. Here are the CORRECT DIRECTIONS. Both locations are in Los Alamos and only a few minutes from each other. Sorry for the confusion.
From Pojoaque take Rte 502 to Los Alamos. Continue on 502/Trinity Drive to the intersection with Diamond Drive (major intersection; Diamond is a 4 lane road). Get in right lane when approaching Diamond. Turn right on Diamond and follow it about 3 miles to where it ends in a oroundabout. Get in the left lane when approaching the roundabout. Drive 3/4 of the way around the roundabout and up North San Ildefonso Rd. At the top of the mesa, after three blocks the road you are on veers off to the right and becomes Barranca Rd. Instead, continue straight on San Ildefonso Rd (i.e. turning left beside the play area) towards the Sportsman's Club. The road winds downhill and then up a small rise. At the top of the rise, where the road turns from pavement to gravel, turn left into the parking area

Sat May 14, regular meet, 10 am - 2 pm (starts between 10-1), Rendija South, start+finish at Pajarito trailheadDIRECTIONS: Guaje Pines cemetary - start/finish may be on the east or the west side of the cemetary, see meet directions to be sure. They are only a couple of hundred meters apart, and you pass the east side first. In either case, the tents and tables at the start/finish should be visible to the right of the road.From Pojoaque take Rte 502 to Los Alamos. Continue on 502/Trinity Drive to the intersection with Diamond Drive (major intersection; Diamond is a 4 lane road). Get in right lane when approaching Diamond. Turn right on Diamond and follow it past three traffic lights and the golf course. Just past the golf course, you will pass a fire station on the left. Immediately after the fire station, turn left onto Range Rd. Follow Range Rd to where it bends left towards the entrance to the cemetery. Park and descend a dirt road to the start/finish on the east or west side of the cemetery.

directions and the exact start time? (I am not familiar with the
area.) I am planning on geting there right at the begining and
running 2 courses.
