Your A-List: Best Running Trail

Not sure why we bother to count the votes in this category.

Best running trail in the area? Try the one with hundreds, nay thousands of sinfully fit folks along its tendrils at almost any time of day. The one where joggers, walkers, bikers, dog-walkers and stroller-walkers all converge for purposes of health and socializing.

The Lady Bird Lake Trail outdistanced all others with 78 percent of the A-List vote.

Rugged, scenic Barton Creek Greenbelt fell way behind with 7 percent. Mystical Enchanted Rock State Nature Area — which seems to receive votes in A-List contests no matter the category — tied with Lake Georgetown and Palo Duro Canyon State Park. Um, are we talking about the one that’s 400 miles to our northwest?

Closer candidates — Pease Park, Walnut Creek Park, Bastrop State Park, McKinney Falls State Park and McKinney Roughs — lost to that far-out selection with 2 percent or less.
