10 Miles in Seattle.

Training in a city can present challenges once you get to the half-marathon and marathon distances. No one likes to have to stop every other block for a crosswalk light, or contend with dangerously uneven concrete or asphalt surfaces when focusing on the completion of a 10 to 20 mile run. On the other hand, all the half- and full-marathons I've ever run were in urban environments (which implies that you should be training for that sort of terrain). If you're looking for a good ten-mile route in Seattle, try the route shown in the following map. A group of us from Chuckit ran it this past Saturday, before the downpour started.
