EVENT DETAILS

So, I've randomly picked this hike out of my personal hiking database.

This 13.5 KM hike will travel between Chester Station and Lawrence Station Station.
Some interesting spots include

'Neighbourhood of Playter Esates'.

'ET Seton Park'.

'Serena Gundy Park Trail'.

'The Neighbourhood of Lawrence Park'.

PACE: We'll aim for a pace of 4.5-5.5 km/h

The hike will be on a combination of paved paths and sidwalks.

In terms of hills, there's about 1 long climb of 50 meters and a few shorter ones.

I'll attempt to do a washroom break at E.T. Seaton Park, about an hour and 15 minutes into the hike. However, its unlikely its open.
I'm willing to attempt Sunnybrook Hospital, about 2 hours into the hike. However, they only permitted half my group to use the washroom the last time I tried to go there.
So, both washroom options are big maybes. SORRY.
