yaaaaaaaaay another person who counts in miles instead of km!! (we are a minority here... )

Yes, I've noticed that! Kms just do not compute in my brain - even when I'm on my gym's km-based treadmill I'm constantly doing math! Does that make us bad Canadians? :(

I hate hockey too. If that makes me a bad Canadian, so be it! lol

Hey were you running along the Don Valley trails this afternoon? I was talking with a runner for a few minutes today, on my run - was that you? :)

Nope, that wasn't me! I do pass pretty close to that trail, as I run through Moore Park ravine, Mount Pleasant cemetery and the Beltline trail, but I still haven't figured out how to connect to the Don Valley trail from this route.

Try this:

It is a bit rougher trail than the Moore Park ravine, but still okay in runners and not trail shoes.
The road to hell is paved. Run trails.
