Vancouver’s Arbutus Corridor is home to a lot of great runnable hills so why not run them all? Greg scoured the depths of the known world to unleash the Tentacles, a beastly pair of routes which dive deep into the hills of the Arbutus corridor and beyond for 15 or 27 kilometres. It’s a tentacular spectacular of epic proportions! Release the Kraken!
