Who knew Madison could make you feel like you’re on a get-away vacation. Yet…it’s exactly how I feel each time I lace up my shoes and head out for a run on the lake shore path.
There is nothing better than running next to a gorgeous view of Lake Mendota - any time of the year. In the summer, I love sweating under the sun as I look out on the lake to see a variety of boats scattered across the blue water. As fall approaches, you can run through a tunnel of red and yellow leaves as the crisp air brushes against your face. Don’t let Madison snow faze you - winter is actually one of the most gorgeous times to hit the path as you can get a glimpse of trees freshly covered in snow overlooking the iced lake. And then there’s spring. After facing the below zero temperatures all winter long, it feels great to drop the layers of clothes for some shorts and run as the weather gets increasingly warmer. I’m seriously not trying to be all poetic here; the path is just one of the most beautiful sites in Madison, something everyone should experience.
The lake shore path is also great for biking and waking. No matter what you choose to do make sure you visit Madison’s wonderful lakeshore path and perhaps take a journey all the way down to Picnic Point!
