Running in Utrecht along the Amsterdam-Rijn-Kanaal. When you are not familiar in Utrecht it is a simple but nice run of 10 kilometers. Start at the Vleutense brug near the Douwe Egberts factory (some times you can smell the freshly burned coffee). From the directions of the city cross the bridge and run along the canal up to the city Nieuwegein. Along the way boats will pass you or you can try to keep ahead. It is one long stretch but nice to run: you will cross some bridges. I run it quite often.
