Itinerary: | |||||||
The Douglas Fir Trail traverses the
escarpment above the Bow River, east of
Edworthy Park. This is a short but
reasonably
strenuous trail run (or walk) with lots of
ups and downs via stairs. We
will run (or for those of who wish to walk) at a moderately brisk
pace. If you prefer to walk, please check
with the coordinator if there are any
sign-ups who prefer to walk, or make sure
you have a walking partner if you do not
wish to walk alone. We will run/walk west from the ramp up to Shaganappi, do the hike one way and return the same way. Total distance is approx. 7.5 km return. For those who plan to run, we will do the entire 7.5 km loop. For those who wish to walk, we will have a turn-around time at 40 minutes. For those wishing to participate in the apre-run/walk social, we will head over to the Newcastle Pub on the corner of 17 Ave & 26 Street S.W.
