San Vicente a scenic alternative route
I was surprised to see the Daily Bruin recommend running down
Wilshire Boulevard to the beach (“Scenic laps tracked outside
Drake,” Jan. 24).
Instead, runners should go down San Vicente Boulevard, which
is
just a couple of blocks north of Wilshire.
This route offers a grassy median on which to run, which is much
easier on the knees than theconcrete sidewalks of Wilshire.
Also, San Vicente takes runners through charming Brentwood and
relaxing residential areas instead of subjecting them to the
industrial hustle and bustle of Wilshire.
I would highly recommend following this route instead of taking
Wilshire.
