So you just moved to a new neighborhood and want to explore the best jogging routes in the area. MapMyRun.com is a great place to start. All you need to do is plug in your ZIP code, and voila! A handy list pops up, complete with a map of the route, the distance and type of terrain, including ratings by other runners. You can also map your own run, keep track of your training schedule and find races in your area.
If you're getting pretty serious about long-distance running, you might need to find more than a route. Find a local running club to join. The site lists the groups by type (running, walking or triathlon) and location, though this link takes you directly to the Southern California options, which include several in Westchester and many in Los Angeles.
