Woodland Park

Woodland Park is located between downtown and John’s Run/Walk Shop (Chevy Chase). This 19-acre park sites on High St. between Kentucky Ave. and Clay Ave. The park is just a 1/4-mile walk from our South Ashland Ave. shop, and the loop within the park measures about 0.62 miles.

Woodland Park houses a pool, a baseball field, basketball courts, tennis courts, a skate park, a playground, and a gazebo. Parking is available off-street, and a small parking lot is off Kentucky Ave. (across from the Press Juice Bar).

Woodland Park is a pleasant place to run or walk with lots of shade. Because the loop is short, you can visit the park with runners of different paces and still feel like you are running together as you see each other through the park. Woodland is also good for running repeats, trying to run each lap slightly faster than the last.
