Van Nuys is known for many great things, but its great parks and running trails often get lost in the shuffle. If you are looking to get fit this summer, but do not want to spend time and money wasting away in a gym, why not take up the activity of running. All you really need is a pair of shoes and a relaxing trail to run. Running can be a cathartic experience, where you delve deep into your inner thoughts and fears. It's also a great time to listen to a podcast or audiobook. Here are a few trails to try near your Van Nuys apartment.
