On May 14, British Columbia will reopen provicional parks
British Columbia has announced that phase two of the province’s four phase return will begin mid-May, and will include the reopening of provincial parks for day use (on May 14), along with small social gatherings.
This is very good news for runners as they’ll be able to access their favourite trails and maybe even recruit a training partner or two.
B.C.’s parks and trails have been closed since late March. According to the provincial government, B.C. residents could almost double the number of social contacts they have currently and still maintain flat transmission rates. Phase two also includes the ability to visit healthcare professionals like physiotherapists, chiropractors and counsellors.
Gatherings of over 50 people remain banned for the foreseeable future, which includes professional sports and concerts.
While the province remains a long way from a complete return to normalcy, these developments are encouraging news. The province’s runners will be able to achieve a level of relative normal, just in time for the nice weather.
So on May 14, gather one or two running buddies and hit your local trails for your first group run of the spring.
