good asphalt route to run a 20 mile in Scottsdale Arizone

Hi! Does anyone know a good place/park to run a 20 miler. I am vacationing in this most beautiful state... but still need to do a 20 for upcoming marathon. I am staying in Scottsdale so anything reasonable close would be great. Thanks!

Look at the database of routes that the USATF has http://www.usatf.org/routes/search/[/URL" target="_blank">

Here is a 20+ mile route that goes along the greenbelt that follows the wash that runs through the center of the city.

There are a number of other nice routes to run out there.

The greenbelt is a very popular choise. You might want to contact The Scottsdale Running Company and see what else they know of on that side of town.
