I can't remember who posted it or how long ago, but does anyone remember the website where you can map out your running route online?

Thanks

PS  Was that you Sandy that waved on Thursday morning.  I didn't recognize the vehicle.

This is it, Lisa:

If you chose hybrid in the top right hand corner of the map, it gives you the satellite image plus the roads.  Kind of neat, except that we can't zoom in very close here.  If you go and look at Toronto you can see the shadow of the CN Tour and the Skydome.

Especially when gas is $1.05 a litre! And when you are doing things like running across the dam, you can still give it a rough measurement, even if there are no roads.  Hard to do that in the car!

Looking great is what really counts too! wink  Shockingly, I actually did enjoy my run.  It's nice that the humidity has gone for a bit.
