jogging track

Circular running path

A jogging track is a path or circuit designed for running, typically featuring a cushioned or smooth surface to reduce impact on joints.

Often found in parks, stadiums, or fitness facilities, jogging tracks usually form a loop of measured distance: The jogging track at the recreation center is a quarter mile around.

Distinguished from running tracks used for competitive athletics, jogging tracks prioritize casual exercise over racing.
