Running
If you're not quite up to tackling the direct route up Lazy Mountain, the Lazy Moose Trail is a great alternative. The excellent tread and beautiful switchbacks, built by the Valley Mountain Bikers and Hikers or VMBAH, get you most of the way up the mountain before rejoining the steep, punishing grind up to the summit.
This trail is forested, which means you'll have less visibility for spotting wildlife that may be on or near the trail. You should take appropriate precautions and know how to handle and surprise encounters.
