Travel
Tripped-Out Running – Cruisin’ in Cancun
It’s plenty easy to run in Cancun – and safe enough to do so. The question is, with so many other activities to pursue, do you really want to?
Tripped-Out Running – Tempo in Tokyo
The most populous city in the world, Tokyo presents both challenges in the form of traffic (automotive and pedestrian) and opportunities in the form of outstanding parks for the predawn runner.
Tripped-Out Running – Tapping through Taipei
Like many major Asian cities, Taipei presents both challenges and opportunities to the runner. But if you get out early and plan ahead, you can make some great discoveries in this unique city.
Tripped-Out Running – Surging through San Francisco
San Francisco offers infinite possibilities for runners in a climate that is nearly perfect for the sport year-round. While downtown is fun to explore, it is only in getting away from the dense streets that you can really get to know the beauty of this city and the surrounding peninsula.
Tripped-Out Running – Vaulting through Silicon Valley
The bustling suburbs between San Francisco and San Jose provide plenty of opportunities for running. As one example, Mountain View offers both city street and paved trail options for exploration, with a year-round climate conducive to running while traveling.
Tripped-Out Running – Ambling at Altitude in Albuquerque
Situated at 5200 feet (roughly a mile) above sea level, Albuquerque provides an accessible high-altitude running experience, with adequate sidewalks, sand, and paths. Just don’t try it barefoot as the burrs are a bear.

Sand, streets, heat, humidity, rain, farmers, and dogs all made for an adventurous combination of rave runs on a recent trip to Phuket, Thailand.
Tripped-Out Running – Prancing through Portland
With a great climate, terrific paths, and well-established “culture” for running, it is no wonder that Portland is emerging as an epicenter of US distance running. If you get the opportunity to visit and stay downtown, head down to the Willamette River to enjoy unobstructed paths and views of the city from both banks.
