I don't know if they are still around but I do know that UWF had a lot of trails a while back. Might be worth looking into, just watch out for the parking police!
UWF Trails
The UWF trails are pretty awesome. As much as I ran them I don't think I found all of them. Take a left off University at campus and follow the curve around to the parking lot near the library, left into that and a left all the way back towards the curve. Never had a problem parking there. Follow the little foot-trail along the road and look for the trailhead on the right. Follow that downhill, across a creek/bridge and to the first powerline slash. To the left there is another powerline slash about 3/4 mile away and trails bouncing between the 2 slashes. Right from the first pwr line slash there are trails that will take you near the power station or back to the library/library parking lot.
Have fun with the runs.

If you're looking to combine running AND boozing, you might want to look into a hash run (no, not that kind of hash). Go to www.gthhh.org and check it out. Always a great time...as long as you don't mind some extreme toilet humor. Different groups conduct their runs in different ways, but the idea is basically the same: The pack chases the hares, who leave a trail. I'd recommend wearing your brand new shoes, though, as the 'trails' can twist and turn, turning into a pretty long ass run. And there will be lots of beer at the end of the trail (generally speaking).

Are we talkin' MAINSIDE ???? (what they called it back-in-the-day) or ..... what ??? No need to respond directly ... as I'm 5500+ miles away and I'm not goin' running in P-Cola anytime soon ... just tryin' to understand you boys and the things that are important in P-Cola 35+ years after my big splash there ..... but I don't understand the conundrum ... where to run @ NAS Pensacola .... i.e., Mainside ... ????
How about ........ anywhere??
The trails at UWF are about the best ones around. One problem from about June-September, though. There are these mother-f*cking yellow flies that will tear your a$$ up from start to finish. They will swarm your head and arms, and you can literally poke them with your finger and they will just sit there and suck your blood. Haven't tried using bug-spray, cause I'm not big on sweating with all kinds of chemicals on my grape, so I just run through the woods like a retard with my arms flailing over my head.
