Paulo Jeronimo,
a local Java developer and an enthusiastic runner, organized a
href="http://blog.eucorro.net/2011/07/duke-run.html">community run
in Brasilia. He was also joined by
href="http://jbossbrasil.org/site/members/claudiomiranda/">Claudio
Miranda and together we ran around some of the most secured area in
Brasilia covering

da Alvorada (Presidential Palace),
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pal%C3%A1cio_do_Planalto">Palácio
do Planalto (President's work place),
href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pal%C3%A1cio_do_Jaburu">Palácio do
Jaburu (Vice Presidential Palace), and

Building.
Here is the complete course:

I gave a few Odwalla bars to both of them and looking forward to their
feedback on the different flavors. Do you know you can buy them online
at
odwallashop.com ?
Check out some pictures from the course:

Hi Arun, it was nice to run and chat. Thanks for the odwalla bars, very nice.
Arun,
Very cool idea! We're organizing a similar concept on a global scale this Saturday, July 9th through Meetup.com.

Hope you can join a group in your community, or lead the effort to form a new group!
Cheers,

Hi Sarah,
As much as I'd love to attend the Sao Paulo meetup, 10am is too late for me. I'm speaking at a conference around the same time :(
But am getting very hooked with runkeeper and have several suggestions on how to improve it over all, will talk to you off-line about it.
