Vancouver Jogger May 2013 10:08pm, 11 May 2013 3,538 posts	0 Vancouver Jogger Might be too late for this year but I've really enjoyed the Bedgebury Forest 10k - part of the RW trail blazer series. Great family day out in the woods - bouncy castle, climbing wall etc etc for the children, then after the running is done with there are all the activities in the woods to enjoy - most of them free, but Go Ape for the more adventurous. This will be the third year I've done this one.
