Running on the path around Cooper River Park is very relaxing.I ran a single loop around the park from the parking lot next tot he track . The Boat house is a great space if you havent seen it yet. The loop around cooper river is 3.65 miles and rather flat, as you cross the bridge at Cuthbert Blvd you get a great view of Center City Philadelphia as seen in the photo below. One of the best things of running Cooper River park besides the views is the deverse activities. Today there were several family reunions and a a large Art Festival which Donna and I are going back to Tomorrow. Another great advantage to Cooper River Park is that my wife can sit and read by the river or go for a walk while I run since she is a non runner, this makes for a great afternoon or morning for both of us. Here is a link to the running route around Cooper River Park. http://www.dailymile.com/routes/34184-walking-route-in-merchantville-nj
