Places to run at the U

[TheSizzle36]

Anybody know of any good places (like a track, outdoor or indoor) to run at the U that are open to the general public? Or if not at the U, someplace nearby?

Thanks!

My guess is that East High School is the closest by with an open track?

We already discussed this but here are some good runs for the future:

1. 11th Avenue Run--you have old cool homes along with an amazing cemetary and great views of the city.

2. Sunnyside Avenue--you can start up at the mouth of immigration canyon and run down to Foothill and then over to the U campus. It would end up being around 4 miles.

3. East High or West High Track--the East High track is obviously closer. West High has a good track but it would be a 7-8 mile drive to get downtown to use it.

Other interesting runs in the area include: Memory Grove which is a fabulous run with some dips and some ups. Any of the avenue streets are interesting because of the homes and the people.

I used to see Urban Meyer and an assistant jogging on the normal pathways throughout campus.

Paris Warren used to run through that Smiths on E street and about 8th Ave.
