Looking for a loop in DC to do interval work

Albemarle-Brandywine-Chesapeake do get fairly steep 3-4 blocks from Wisconsin, so that loop would only be flat paralleling Wisconsin.

I guess i meant betwn River Rd and Western. I have only run around there 2x and biked thru 1x, but i recall thinking how a person could do some fast, controlled running in this area. Google shows it as American Univ Park.

the mall is too crowded even for a slow jog. why cant you just do it on hains point. run you 1-2mile interval. stop there. then come back. out and backs

Try reading the OP's OP:

" National mall and Hains point would be perfect but too far for an interval workout"

try reading what i wrote dumbass. i was saying that although it is too long to do a loop, just go out and back. you can do 200m repeats on the appalachian trail if you really want. you just run how far you want to go and then stop. your legs dont care if you run a loop or not. its the same distance

Running 200m repeats on the sidewalks of downtown Washington. Sounds like a hoot.

nowhere was doing 200m repeats in dc sidewalks mentioned. have you ever been to hains point? not exactly crowded

Best bets scout out Reno Park, around Sidwell Friends, or in and around AU.
