Running map for the fit tourist
Wednesday 11 October 2006 by Edward.
Tourists who want to keep in shape and need good routes to walk, run or jog when visiting a new destination can go to WalkJogRun. I clicked on Halifax, Nova Scotia, to find several routes. A 5km route was posted downtown, circling the commons (where the Rolling Stones had a recent concert) and the citadel. Start and finish locations were flagged. A table of leg distances, times and turns accompanied the map. My experience with the map revealed an early release with more work required.
