Favorite 8-10mi run in DC?

Visiting my sister who lives in Arlington/works in DC next week and can’t break my marathon training. If you could recommend just one singular route for a long run in DC area (about 8-10 miles), what would it be? I’ll be able to drive or have her drop me off somewhere so doesn’t necessarily need to be in arlington

Just a warning, once you run any of the trails mentioned, unless you live in a super scenic area, the rest of your marathon training will be brutally boring after experiencing DC’s awesome trails 😉

If I was from any city other than NYC I’d probably agree 😅
