Today I ran 3.5 miles at tempo pace just north of the Pilot Truckstop in Santa Nella CA.
The idea has occurred to me that this blog would be a great forum for keeping track of where are good places to exercise around truckstops.
The area just north of the truckstop has a loop that has a continuous sidewalk around the whole block. The area was leveled for development, but only has a Subway and a gas station on one corner. One lap is 0.7 miles. No grade on the run at all.
I may think of other categories later, but for now:
Safety: Good. It is in a wide open area, no running through shrubs or near places criminals can hide in. Little or no traffic on two of the sides. No streets to cross.
Pet factor: good, most of the area is open fields.
Scenery factor: Nice view of the Diablo Range to the west. Flat farmland and Interstate 5 nearby.
52 degrees, mostly cloudy
