We first ran the Burn’aby Burn 29k back in the Broadway Running Room days when the Central Valley Greenway was in its infancy. Today, the Greenway is a key commuter route through central vancouver to Burnaby and beyond. Burn’aby Burn 2.0 is a rebooted 29k starting and finishing at Cambie which begins on Memory Lane with a loop back to the location of the Broadway store at Fir and Broadway.
For folks looking for a shorter version, we have included the Central Valley Nootenanny, a 16-kilometre version that loops back at Nootka St and rejoins the Greenway at Nanaimo St. Want 13k instead? Loop back at Nanaimo and follow Broadway back to Victoria to rejoin 10th Ave for the run back to Cambie.
