It attracts more gay men than any place on earth. So depends on what you think is hot I guess...
The island is about 8 or 9 miles all the way around. So good luck running there.
Don't bend over to tie your running shoes.
depends on how much running you want to do. I was there for a wedding once and never really found much in the way of routes. Small, developed, crowded
I would say move to Key West. I've been down there to visit a few times and have went running and like it. You just have to make up interesting runs because it's not that big. It's also expensive to live so make sure you have money.
It's the only place in the continental U.S. where snow has never been recorded. That's worth something. Yeah, it's become a gay haven. But that would enhance your chances with the remaining straight female populace, wouldn't it?
I live in the Keys. It is generally a terrible place to run. That being said, there is a fun running crowd. Almost all races have free beer afterwards and lots of free stuff in the raffles(dive trips, Dry Tortugas,$50 at local restaurants, etc...).The fastest runners are usually the local high school kids or some person on vacation who can run sub 17:005k(M) or sub 20:005K(F) Check out Southernmostrunners.com . If you can handle crowds, small living spaces, and expensive rent but want to have a fun time for a year or two then give it a try.
