Going for a run in 16 cities around the world

This story is part of an Olympic.ca series on running called Canada Runs.

The easiest way to explore a new city (or the one you live in) is to pull out the runners and step outside the door. We’ve heard it’s also good exercise. Here’s a little running tour of 16 world cities.

Well good morning Golden Gate! Beautiful weather, amazing views, and crossing something off my list! Ran across the Golden Gate Bridge (twice!) this weekend. :) My 80-year old gramma asked me to send her 'a selfie in front of the bridge.' Could she be ANY cooler? #rockandroll #halfmarathon #runsf #rnrsf #competitor #goldengate #run #runner #runhappy #sanfrancisco #mygrandmaisthebest #selfie #haha
