This run was “calibrated” in that a couple of weeks ago I set the trip odometer on the car and found that from my place to the QEW overpass over Erin Mills Parkway is about 5km. Since traffic was light on this Labour Day Monday I ran the route—normally it would be too noisy. Even with a walk in the middle while I drank some water and stopping for a couple of lights I managed to achieve a better time by about 3 minutes than my usual “hill, dale and trail” route. So, now I’m satisfied that the more interesting route I run is probably over 10km.
