TNT #4 Snowmen and Trees light tour Toques & Training series

Organizer: Jane R (Event Director)

Map: St Andrews / Hillhurst

Thanks to Jane for a fun course. Here are some comments from the runners:

"Big thanks to Jane for a nice TNT course with the bright trees and puffy snowmen, at least one of which was Olaf."

"That is a frosty night run. ️Great course & beautiful lights."

"That was merry and bright; and a ton of fun!"

"What a fun adventure. The lights were beautiful and we didn’t even notice the cold!"

You may want to consider doing this week's TNT in the dark - any time after 5pm. Why? Because this TNT is a tour of some of the lights in West Hillhurst, Parkdale, St Andrew's Heights and Briar Hill. I hope you find good displays at the control points and along the routes in between. At each control you should find either a snowman or a beautiful tree or both, no markers have been used.

The course crosses Crowchild Trail please only use the crossing points that are marked.

There are various ways to cut the course short.

I suggest you park on 22 Street between 7th and 9th Avenues.
