Where These Clubs Run

In Charlotte, the Rail Trail runs beside the LYNX Blue Line and drops runners at a string of breweries and taprooms between Atherton Mill and New Bern, which is exactly why so many groups start and finish there. A few miles over, the Booty Loop through Myers Park's oak-lined streets pulls in a quieter, more traditional running crowd before they head toward a beer of their own.

Orlando's version orbits Lake Eola downtown and the Cady Way Trail through Baldwin Park, both flat and paved enough that a weekday run feels more like a warmup, with stops in the Milk District and around Ivanhoe rounding things out. St. Louis works the same way around Forest Park and Tower Grove, where loop paths spill directly onto streets lined with bars and patios.

Further west, Denver's flat greenways along Cherry Creek and the South Platte connect downtown to neighborhoods like Sloan's Lake, where breweries sit right off the loop. Dallas runners lean on the Katy Trail through Uptown and the loop around White Rock Lake, while Portland's routes push into Central Eastside and North Portland, rain or shine, since the weather there never really stops anyone.
