Sparks Marina is perfect for runners with its wide, 2 mile path around the lake. In summer you can cool off after your run with a swim as the water is fed 2-3 million gallons of fresh water daily through an underground aquifer. Sunset runs here are epic with the fire red sky contrasting against the mountains all around you.
