Los Angeles

Short, a little trafficky

out and back at the Hollywood Reservoir--part of it's closed.

A decent loop around a residential part of Hollywood.

Great spot to run. Map below reads 1.99 miles, my GPS says about 2.05. Can easily park anywhere along the loop. Mostly undulating.

Easy parking on both ends, all grass, all undulating. Can be combined with the Brentwood Country Club or go all the way south to venice, almost all on grass.

This route is almost all grass. Easier to park in Brentwood than Venice end. It is mostly undulating, with the running near Venice flat. The run south of Pico at night isn't a great idea. Also, this doesn't make use of the beach path, but the grass just inland. The beach path would be slightly longer and a harder surface.

Nice loop to run after work or at lunch hour if you work around the Century City area.

Around Hancock Park--the fabulous "David House" (ie, the house with a bunch of statues of Michelangelo's David out front) is the halfway point.
