After some fantastic suggestions from our BucksHappening Twitter followers, I decided to take on Core Creek Park for my second Happy Trails running adventure (thanks @scullyano!).  The paths around Lake Luxembourg are not only beautiful but offer a great, diverse work out. I loved how the extensive grounds allow you to cater the workout to fit your specific routine.

I ran along the winding path, explored the woods,  and even sprinted through the grass.  The water fountains sprinkled throughout the park allow you to keep hydrated on a long run without the burden of carrying a water bottle. If you're looking for a light jog, keep to the steady path, but if you want to kick it up a notch run along the main road to find some hidden trails. Core Creek is one of those parks where you could go for a run everyday and find a new path to explore every time. Check out some of the stunning footage I took; even if you're not a runner, you might see a spot you'd like to visit.
