Best Places for a Run? (self.rva)

My handle gives it away, but I enjoy running. Richmond is beautiful and I have a few places to run that I really enjoy.

Top spot is the Fan. I love the architecture, friendly cars, and people watching.

James River park system is also a favorite. There’s a challenging loop around Forest Hill park that gets me going and then you can head for a quick dip in the river to cool off.

What are your top spots?

Late response, just joined group:

Buttermilk Trail
Hollywood Cemetery Riverside Trail
Brown's Isle Pipeline (can do this one while doing the Belle Isle Loop and crossover at 14th St. Bridge.
Pony Pastures Park Trails

I always loved running down Monument, Arthur Ashe Boulevard, and Cary/Main Street.

Better late than never and welcome. Pipeline is good but check the water level first. I think above 5.5 feet it can get a little wet getting onto the pipeline.
