Great Runs in Saint John, New Brunswick
Note: For the Full Guide to Running in Saint John, see the GR Website
The working seaport of Saint John is tucked along the Bay of Fundy in southern New Brunswick. This traditional land of the Passamaquody, Mi’kmaq, and Maliseet peoples became a point of trade and defense during the Acadian era, then industrialized as a ship building center under the control of British Loyalists surrounding the American Revolution. In 1785, it was the first incorporated city in what would later be Canada. Today, this hilly port city supports cruise ship tourism, heavy industry, and interestingly enough, the highest tides in the world. Running in Saint John is marked by waterfront pathways, massive parks, and a scenic handful of historic city streets.
