Runner Notes

While not really a trail run, this paved trail could be great if you're looking to get in some pavement miles without the hassle of road-running alongside motorists.

Description

When this trail is complete, it will be a 10' wide, paved, urban trail linking from Walnut Creek Metropolitan Park to Balcones District Park. Along the route, expect the terrain to be nearly flat and the scenery to be pleasantly verdant.
