Grip It and Rip It is a 10-kilometre route from Distance Runwear that does a round of the Langara Golf Course and then a short chip-shot past the Queen Elizabeth Park Pitch and Putt — all the nearby golf without the golfing!
Want to run 5k instead? Skip the Langara loop and Queen E loop parts of the route and head right up Ontario Street from 51st Avenue to 33rd Avenue instead. Turn right onto 33rd to cross Main Street and turn left back to get back to the store.
