Itinerary:

As the title suggests, we will be skipping. A big of a change from the average hike, skipping is a great cardio activity.

This an't a joke, and it doesn't involve any rope. This a traveling event.

Plus, confusing others as we hop on by like kangaroos is half the fun.

This is just for fun and should take just two hours to do, but you will feel great after completion.

We will follow this path

  1. South along Allen Road
  2. East along belt line, one street
  3. South along Old Park Drive
  4. West along Ava Drive
  5. Through Cedarvale Ravine
  6. Through Winston Churchill Park
  7. East through Ramden Park
  8. End at Rosedale Subway Station

This event is 7 KM, but all downhill or flat

So, come on out and give it a try.
