A tour of the west side of the lower North Shore

1 hour 45 minutes for 22km or so - didn't have the Garmin, so a Google Earth based guess.

Started from St Leonards and followed the Pacific Highway outbound (for a bit of a change) and turned left at Grosvenor Road in Lindfield, heading down into the Lane Cove National Park. Followed the Strider course to Scribblys, followed the road to Delhi Road, through the park to Pittwater Road, followed that to Buffalo Reserve, hooked into the Great North Walk, came out at Boronia Park, then over Ryde Road to home.

Nice evening for a run, felt pretty solid although was glad to get it finished. Feeling better at the end of the longer runs, the endurance side is coming good.

G'day Vatman from Gladesville,

I'll keep my eye out and hopefully spot you out and about!

Great choice for a long run Vat. I like that boardwalk bit near Boronia Park.

Yeah, love the section between Hunter's Hill and Lane Cove National Park (near Lady Game Drive there), great 'technical' bush running...and climbing...and crawling...

One tip, though - don't run it in the dark! Lots of branches at eye level just waiting to give the ol' eyeballs a bit of a flick.
