For a fun time, try running due West from the wooden bridge in
NK. You will zone into WK on a route while takes you over
some really high hills (mountains really). Weave Accelerando
and levitate while running. The mountains get you high enough
up that you literally feel like you're flying an airplane over
West Karana. It was high enough up that I didn't want to risk
letting levitate stop to see how much damage I took. It works
in EK too if you get a lift from the cliffs near the Highpass
ramp, but the zone is much smaller.

I find it annoying that they changed it so you can't switch to
inventory mode while running with the mouse. If I want to
check one of my stats while running, I have to switch to
auto-run, switch to inventory mode, switch out, then stop
auto-run. This was so much easier when I could just hit 'i'
while running.
