Amy VercherMarch 2, 2016This is the best running trail! And whenever you get tired of the traffic, veer off into the neighborhoods for some architectural inspiration!
Want to add another 3 miles without having to repeat. Cross Main St near the main Rice University entrance and connect to the Herman Park Golf Coarse loop trail.
MIA MIANovember 13, 2016Straightforward forward shaded trail. It's a perfect 3mile circle. This is my favorite trail over central park in nyc!
There is a similarly named location (though spelled differently) which is accessible on the North side of Campus. This site is on the South side of campus.
Nice 3 mile trail. Beware, only 2 drinking fountains. Mix of walkers, runners, and bikers. Courteousness is key!- Nice view, full of trees and mostly people who are easy on the eyes. Avoid the too congested memorial park trail.
- Kelli KelJuly 24, 2013Nice, shaded run. 2.9 miles. Don't wear light colored shoes and don't expect people to say hi or give a runners wave :/

Will FlahertyNovember 23, 2012As nice of a place as there is to run in Houston, with more shade and fewer people than Memorial Park- Really 2.9 miles so run a little extra if you want to make it a full 3
