The run is in the Venezuelan Central University through the Agronomy faculty, in Maracay, Aragua State. Is a 10 kilometers circuit, paved and flat. You may be able to watch roughly 80% of the campus. Have a Sunday run, to go far from the city noise, the smog, cars, etc. You will run through experimental fields, milking areas, fruit trees areas, long lonely roads with some exceptions as there will be some runners along the way; the fog and morning cold are really refreshing; the characteristic smell of pigs and birds areas; sugar cane fields, the enormous shadows of the mango trees. At the end you will reach an area called Los Ovejos, as here there are some experimentation with animals. You may return by using the same route, with a slight change when you pass by some building where animal food is elaborated. You pass by the Veterinarian building, the auditorium, the Main Plaza till you reach the beginning point, right at the surveillance booth, where you can park. You must bring your water, as you can find some fountains not necessarily with pure water.
