Run with John. A fast guy passed us out on 16th. We floored it and went for a 5 minute chase and eventually passed him. Quickly ran into the forest to get out of his sight to slow down. Good the Kenyian rule didn't apply anymore :) Made a funny 180 and ended up out on 16th again without realising it was the same road. Then got lost south of 16th.

Terrain running 2:30:37 [3] ** 22.0 km (6:51 / km) +200m 6:33 / km
shoes: Adidas Xcountry

Terrain running in Burnaby. They have way more snow than Vancouver. Ran from Metrotown down to Deer Lake park. Ran around the fields in the park. Great conditions for terrain running. Just enough snow to flatten the tall grass and brambles.

Headed over to Robert Burnaby Park, and ran through the forest. Continued into the conservation area just east of Robert Burnaby Park. Forest a bit dense, and the trail network isn't as extensive as at Robert Burnaby Park.

Headed accross Hwy 1. and ran around Brunaby Lake and ended up at Sperling skytrain station.

Started out cloudy, but cleared nicely near the end of the run. Nive view towards the North shore mountains. Ran with my Bergans backpack. Sweet training today!
