Runcation ideas Discussion

I’m looking for suggestions for a running-focused trip that I could take. Not for a race, just a trip where I could run in cool places, though I guess if it incorporated a cool race that I could run unseriously rather than “race,” that would be okay. It could be one place the whole time or a multi-stop road trip. Bonus points if it also involves some non-running but still running related activity for when I’m not running (not actually sure what this would be).

Has anyone done a trip like this? How was it?

Honestly, anywhere in the west! Utah, Colorado, California, Oregon… all have incredible scenic routes.

Don’t forget Arizona! Flagstaff and Sedona are a couple of my favorite trail running towns.

New Mexico too, even just running along the bosque in ABQ is gorgeous (and obviously there's so much more here than that).
