Every Path in Old Town   6 comments

old town bounds

New project for late winter and early spring: learn a bit about my new neighbourhood by running every inch of it.  The map, above, is a liberal description of the bounds of Old Town; a more accurate one would only include the region from Christ Church to the Locarno to the site of the old rail station to the Town Gardens to Prospect Place and closing the path but this larger area is what the estate agents list areas as when they want them to sound hip or charming.  Besides, I could do Old Town proper in an hour or two.

I’ve already covered most of the paths available, but this will force me to systematically explore alternate paths and alternate connections whilst getting a better feel for the new territories.

[Added 22 February: To clarify the map markings...they usually are part of a longer run or hike, but each new marking will only go from the start of the first new 'mappable' path to the end of the last new bit.  In this way, I hope to minimise the number of overlapping lines.]
