Near my house, there is a small forest plantation that resembles a park. However, there are hardly any people there

I envy you. Our running tracks near our lake are so full that it becomes a game of dodging other people who should probably have a different path that they walk on.

I did like your comment about the place being filled with drug users although that is quite unfortunate.

Your 30k that you did... Did you do this without ever slowing to a walk? If so, I find that really impressive.
