Running for the Hills

After a forty day hiatus, I decided to whip back out the old running sneakers to take advantage of running with such picturesque-Washington views.

There is the perfect running/biking trail with an entrance in Crystal City, which is a five minute walk from my apartment. It starts in a small park called "Water Park" and goes in the direction toward Washington on one side and to Alexandria, VA on the other.

Water Park - The first time my friend and I ran here on Sunday, there was a wedding.
I always go toward Washington because well why wouldn't you want to run to Washington, D.C.?! I have to admit though, I have never actually made it close to Washington (hahahaha). Blame it on my out-of-shape physique.

I have managed to spot the Washington Memorial though! Check-point #1 in the Amazing Race to DC.

Hopefully, the incentive to see more views will motivate me to get my butt in gear! Knowing me, that probably won't even work.
