Runners are a lucky bunch. We get to run with packs of incredibly awesome people, often times train hard on the track and tan simultaneously, get high off fresh air with a quick endorphin boost… the list goes on and on. But running has a unique charm that other sports don’t. As the saying goes: you can’t experience a city to the fullest unless you’ve run through it (at least that’s how I word it!)
As runners we get to experience places and spaces from a different perspective. Bloggers often talk about pounding the streets in a new city, Runners World gathers the latest Rave Run in each new issue, and I guarantee each of us muggle runners has memories of the best city, town, trail, cave, beach, park, you name it where you’ve experienced a bright and bustling new place on the run.
It’s only fair that if I brag about my top spots, you get to share yours as well…deal? Post a photo or tell us the places that make you feel lucky to be a runner. Tag #runlucky and @oiselle on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook, your choice.
