Miami has an exciting trail that is currently being improved but for now it provides a nice shot from Brickell down South along our US 1 corridor. I like running this route when I want shade because it sits almost entirely under the Metro Rail line, which is our version of an elevated rail. You can start this run from what is known as the Brickell Metrorail Station and run it south for almost 9 miles in a single direction. Some of the locals might call this path the ‘MPath’ but the recent rebranding of the trail calls it the Underline. The one drawback of this route is that there are no water fountains and bathrooms that are in close proximity unless you enter the rail stations located every couple of miles. Something I like to do at least once or twice a year is take the trail down south all the way from the Brickell Station to the Dadeland South Station then take a few dollars to buy a ticket back on the train. You might even do a few stretches and some pushups in the comfort of the air conditioned train, as the ride back will take you about 20 minutes.
