No better way to experience a place

I love to travel + I love to run = Best way to see a new place is to run through it.

Apparently I'm not the only one...

This showed up in the week's Runner's World Quote of the Day emails:

There is no better way to experience a place than to run it. You get to experience the deep crevices of an area, the senses beyond the visual, something you would never do if you didn't run.

I recently had the opportunity to run in Tallahassee, and have an upcoming work trip that will give me a whole week to run in San Diego. (Best running city in the world! Oh wait... I might be a biased judge...)

I keep a list of all of the places I've run, and get a warm feeling in my heart when I get to add a new city to the list.

Do you run when you travel?
Where is your favorite place to run?
