Denver Dissers-where to run

[Lisa75]

I'm training for the WDW half marathon. Going to a conference next month at the Hotel Monaco. Can anyone recommend a nearby park to run just about 3 miles that would be safe and open, and easy to get to from this Hotel?

Thanks,

Lisa

I'm going to copy this post for you on the Events/competition sub-forum where more training chatter goes on --

Well this probably might be coming to late but I'll reply anyway. But if your staying downtown the two best parks I can think of are Washington Park and Sloan Lake. There not smack dab in the middle of Denver. But if you can drive to them you can get to them. There around 2.5 miles around so you'll have to go a bit extra to get a full 3 miles.

There's also City Park. But I'm not sure how far around that park is.

Plus there's a running train next to the downtown REI. I have no clue how long that is honestly but you can definitely run 3 miles on it easy.
