Subject: Looking for a track

I'm looking for somewhere to do track workouts in northern virginia, preferably the Alexandria / Falls Church area.

I had been using a "track" on Seminary Rd. near 395, but it's not really a track (read: pavement) and I can't really get up much speed, as it seems to be used more as a playground for the neighborhood kids.

Does anyone know anything about 1005 Mount Vernon Avenue? I think it's called GW Park and Braddock Field. Found it on the Alexandria city Web site.

Have you tried any of the High Schools?  I use the ones in Arlington and they are pretty nice.

Yup, I run on the Washington and Lee high school track sometimes. During the year, it's kinda spotty since they have games, etc. It's better during the summer. But I ran on it quite a bit this past winter.

That is where I run, it is the closest one to my house and a nice track.

I may have to start hitting it more often as I run out of daylight - I did so during my 8-miler tonight But I do not want to have to run 8-10 miles on the track! Ick.
