If I ask someone:
Where did you run last night?
It can be understood either as an enquiry about the place in which that person ran, or as a question about the destination that person ran to.
If I specifically wanted to ask the second question while still using the word where, what should I say?
Just add the preposition "to" as you did.
Where did you run to last night?
Similarly, you can use "from" to refer to the place they started.
A runner often runs a loop, so "Where did you run" could often be answered "at the local park" (your first version).
If you want to know where they ran to, ask it like that: "Where did you run to last night?". The problem with that question is you may confuse a loop-runner: "Um, home?"
