Running is one of the best ways to explore a new place. In a car, everything just whizzes past, but when I run, I really get to scope out the sights…cute shops, restaurants, parks…all of them are noticed when I run.

I just started running seriously in the last 2 years and one of my favourite runs so far as been running along the Promenade de Anglais in Nice, France. It was amazing to think beyond just being there and actually running part of it.

Wonderful post. Love your closing paragraph. Running as a universal language is so true among runners! Yet, my favorite runs have always been when I am completely alone. Jumping over downed logs in a state natural area, splashing through inches of water and feeling it drain out my shoes, stopping to choose a turn of the trail–heart racing sweat dripping mind whirling, feeling so far away only miles from home. What a wonderful thing!

I love it! Your descriptions are so true….my runs have been in London, in York England along the river in Spring, in Alaska on the beach during Salmon season, In India where people are at the local water pump, brushing teeth, morning bath etc and look up to smile as I run by.
thanks for inspiring me again

I think that discover a country while running is the best way to do it! And it’s so fantastic to sometimes change your routine and go adventurous!
So far, I’ve run in Quebec, France and the US.
