It was quite a good run considering the conditions. I snaked across Walter Baker Park (WBP) where I took the opportunity to do a bit of hill training by running up the snow hill a few times. BTW, if you are in the area, do not go up there unless you really want to, it's been used for what looks like a party spot for teenagers with empty beer cans, human waste and used "protection". After getting bored at WBP, I headed to Palladium drive where I took a detour by the very busy CostCo and HomeDepot. You wouldn't believe there is a recession on with all the traffic leading up to these stores. I finished my run by going around ScotiaBank Place and doing two laps around the Palladium Auto Circle.I was happy that the run was over when I got home, the wind made it really hard to sustain any kind of speed.
Jenn says that she used to hill train in WBP. Her descriptions were "colourful." She also recommends Mooney's Bay and a soccer field somewhere in Gloucester. She also has "colourful" memories of stair training :P
