Itinerary:

Slowpoke-ish run easy run around the Bow River at your own pace.

We'll start at the bottom of the Crescent Heights/McHugh's Bluff Stairs (next to the Curling Club), up the stairs for a warm up then do Centre Street bridge and then over to 14st bridge to loop back to the stairs for approx 6km.

There are options to shorten the run at 10 St NW or lengthen and loop at Crowchild Trail for the speedier ones.

Run straight through, run/walk intervals its up to you. I usually do 10 and 1s intervals.

Social after the run (the real reason I go).

If you are bringing your 4 legged buddy, ensure they are on a leash at all times and in control, the paths will be crowded with bikers, runners, and skaters - don't forget the poop bags!
