Hongqiao Road
Hongqiao Rd starts at the big nexus in Xujiahui where the very 90s-feeling massive orb mall Metro City (美罗城) is at. It stretches to another massive intersection with Gubei Rd and West Yanan Rd, which has an elevated highway over it that one could follow to the end of the universe if they so desired. In my mind, that’s where Hongqiao Rd ends. When I’m jogging along it, I almost always turn right onto West Yanan Rd. I’ve always known intellectually that there’s more beyond the intersection — I’ve even run along those more distant sections before when I’d jogged around different routes — but I’d never felt the need to connect that other Hongqiao Rd to my usual running route. Doing so requires a double crossing past both West Yanan Rd and Gubei Rd, and any time I spend standing still during my runs feels like time wasted. Momentum inevitably carries me elsewhere.
