Greg’s Riverrun 23k route ventures down to the southeast corner of Vancouver to the City’s newest neighbourhood development, the River District. Starting from the Cambie Running Room at 7th and Cambie, the route steps down past Hillcrest, Queen Elizabeth and Memorial South parks to the bike and pedestrian path along the North Arm of the Fraser River that leads through Gladstone Park and Riverfront Park to the River District.
