Runners of Worcester is there anywhere I could go with decent sidewalks/trails where I can get around 10 uninterrupted miles in? I'm newish to the area and I have had trouble finding decent sidewalks or enough of them to run on to put together a long enough run for training. I live near Indian Lake and in a lot of places the side walks are super uneven/broken or they just randomly end.
Where do y'all run?

It's tough in Worcester because this city doesn't invest in safe pedestrian infrastructure. Anywhere you run, you will have to deal with rageful drivers and ankle-breaking potholes, even on what few sidewalks exist. Feel free to DM me for suggestions, I run a lot all over town.
From where you live, I'd suggest the following route. It's a little complex but decent enough and if you follow your instincts and/or bring your phone the first time so you can see the turns on a map, you'll be fine. Here's a link to the route.
