Busboys and Poets Loop

Since I go there all the time, I thought I'd map out a loop for Shirlington from Rt. 7 to Shirlington and named it the Busboys and Poets Loop - it's a 3.57 mile loop and you can make it longer or shorter depending on how you run/walk it. It also links up to the W&OD trail and some side trails as well.

Livestrong is an amazing site. I use their MyPlate link and also use it to find other loops, groups and information. Its all about sustainable health and also has a lot of information for people experiencing specific health concerns or major goals they've set to accomplish. So the nature of the resources on this site are amazing.

p.s. Busboys and Poets is an amazing restaurant/community meeting place/fair trade store/bookstore, etc. depending on which location in the DC metro area you go to, named after Langston Hughes. They have a good selection of vegan and vegetarian options on their menu and it's worth a trip for the food, the company (every time I go I end up getting into a conversation with another patron about the most stimulating topics) and for the events they host.
