If you're not opposed to a trail that climbs, try Rob's Trail (Park City area). Virtually all trails in the Park City area are graded for mountain biking so it's not super steep, but it does climb; it's incredibly fun coming down. Scenic, lots of pines, aspens and some beautiful ski resort views as you crest a ridge. Just go out and back as far as you feel like - it connects to the Mid Mountain Trail higher up, which goes on for 20+ miles. There are multiple connecting trails so just take note of where you're going for the return trip. At signed trail junctions, take the ascending trail for the best route. You can stop in at any ski resort ticket booth, bike shop or tourist information center and get a Basin Recreation / MountainTrails.org map that shows all the trails in the area to see how everything connects. Hundreds of miles of trails.

To get to Robs Trail, take the Kimball Junction exit from I-80, drive south on UT 224 about 2 miles, turn right on Bear Hollow Drive. Stay on that road; drive up roughly 1.4 miles to a hairpin turn. On the left you'll see some parking spaces at the trailhead.

If the mid mountain stuff is too much there are endless possibilities in Round Valley...

And if you want to be able to cool off during your trail run, nearby Jordanelle Reservoir has a twelve mile trail around the northwest and east sides of the lake..

Cheers!

Agreed, Round Valley has some great trails. It's sagebrush/scrub oak country that gets hot during the day, so I consider them early morning trails. The other map on the link Snurfer provded, the Glenwild area, has some higher, cooler areas but you still have to climb through miles of sagebrush terrain to get to it. (I'm thinking specifically of the awesome Flying Dog trail but it's a long access) FWIW, Round Valley and Glenwild are perfect for springtime trail running because the areas dry out more quickly while all the other Park City trails are still snow-packed.
