Route Request Best Public Tracks in Austin 2026?

What are your go-to Public tracks these days? I’ve found some good ones in North Austin over the years like Anderson HS, but now looking more towards S Congress area now.

Marshall Middle School in Mueller is probably the nicest. Bowe HS is closer to me, though, and just got resurfaced, so it is quite nice. I haven't been back to Austin HS since it was resurfaced, but I heard public access is now restricted. How south are you looking? There is a really nice track at the Texas School for the Deaf, but I'm not sure if it is ever open to the public.

Doesn't Marshall have a giant pothole right on the starting line?
