Safety Precautions
Always use good judgement and common sense. Carry a whistle at all times. Headlamps are essential to see and be seen. Take care when crossing roads and parking lots. Watch out for other runners, cyclists, and trail/sidewalk users.
Parking/Start Location:
The start location is north of the washrooms, just next to the playground. There is parking north of this building, and overflow parking further past the building to the east. See the map below for more details.
