Running Through Change

Southern Comfort

While most of my east coast running has been in New Jersey and other places in the North, I have made numerous trips South for both family events and
running-specific trips. I have family in a couple locations in Georgia, and my mother spends the winter in the Florida Keys.  I also raced in Greenville, South Carolina in the NCAA Cross Country Championships in 1997; Orlando, Florida in the USATF Club Cross Country Championships in 1998; and in Greensboro, North Carolina in the USATF Cross Country Championships in 2000. 

Running while traveling is a great way to explore new places.  Last weekend, I took a short break from Boston and went South to Savannah, Georgia to visit my younger brother Nick, who is a designer for a Hilton Head-based advertising agency. Hilton Head Island just happens to be perfectly shaped like a running shoe. During this trip I went on two runs and I have the pictures for both in this post. 

The Runs

Run 1 (map): From my Country Inn hotel in downtown Savannah I ran north to the Front River waterfront area and east to the end of the boardwalk.  I returned by cutting through downtown Savannah streets, taking in the sights of the historical buildings and Savannah’s numerous squares.

Run 2 (map): This time I ran south from the Country Inn hotel through Forsyth Park, known for its fountain, and returned by cutting through side streets along the park. 

Thought of the Day: Savannah is, in my opinion, one of the most photogenic cities that I have ever visited.  Running in Savannah is challenging because I found myself wanting to stop almost every block to take a picture of a church, house, garden or other scenic location.  Check out the pictures in the galleries to the right and below.  It’s hard to do Savannah justice in pictures; you just need to see it for yourself.   If you travel to the southeastern United States, I highly recommend putting Savannah on your list. 


Run 1 - Waterfront

Run 2 - Forsyth Park Area
