Running route A: only a few stoplights, around the Parliament building and around Izvor Park.....approximately 4 miles total, and can be extended to about 6-7 miles by running down the big boulevard to Unirii Square, and again to about 10-20 miles by running along the path along the river (Dambovita)......
