Favorite Running Routes
Paul
Ghent, Belgium
I love running in
Ghent. It is completely flat, so encouraging for beginners and people aiming
for personal bests. There is a rowing lake with a 5km track. This connects with
a nature reserve on an 8km loop. If that isn't enough, there is another nature
reserve, full of birds and canals surrounded by a 10km loop. I will be running
my first marathon in Ghent in March 2022. Anyone?
Jennifer Nice,
France
In Nice Provence, I
really enjoyed joining the local joggers running along what is one of the most
beautiful streets in the world—the Promenade des Anglais. You have the fresh
salty sea breezes filling your lungs, the sun shining on the waves of the sea,
and the beautiful buildings standing along the running route. Feel free to grab
some fresh shellfish and a glass of wine on the beach as a reward.

Offa, UK
The Offa's Dyke path,
which runs from Prestatyn to Chepstow, provides stunning scenery and is just
perfect to focus on the run. The sections of the route I like the most include
the slopes (坡地) of Moel Famau and the
section from Llangollen to Bodfari, where there is an excellent pub (The
Dinorben Arms) to refuel in comfort. Perfect.
Richard
Protaras, Cyprus
My favorite route is
in Protaras, Cyprus. There is a path that runs from Fig Tree bay to Polyxenia
beach and you have wonderful views of the bays and beaches while running. The
amazing clear seas and sandy beaches make it very pleasant. The best time to go
is early morning when the sun isn't blazing and the paths aren't too busy with
holidaymakers.
