Coho Run to finish at Ambleside

NO, this year’s Cobo
Run participants won’t
be running backwards
on Sunday, Sept. 12.

It’s the route, which for the
past 19 years has started at
Ambleside in West Vancouver
and ended at Kitsilano in
Vancouver, that is going to be
reversed this year.

Twenty years ago, the race
was laid out to roughly follow
the path of the Squamish
Nation look-out, who watched
on the North Shore for the
first sign of the salmon return-
ing to the rivers, and then pad-
dled over to Kitsilano to bring

the news to his kinsmen.

The new reverse route will
start at Kits Beach at 7:45 a.n.
and finish up at Ambleside, the
site of all the 20th Annual
Coho Festival activities.

“It is very fitting to be end-
ing the race where the Coho
are. It will also be ar freshing
change for the participants,”
said Charles Nash, this year’s

-Coho Run organizer.

The Coho Run attracted
about 300 participants in
1998, bringing the total for the
past 30 years to about 7,500
runners. It is the only 14 km
run in the Lower Mainland
and a great way to finish off the

According to a June Boston

Globe dispatch, the

Bhutan, nestled betw

and Tibet, recently legalized
television-watching for its
700,000 people and began
broadcasting the news and
other programs. Before that,
the country’s few TV sets were
used only to watch imported
videos. *(And, according to a
June New Yorker travelogue,
the Bhutanese Jandscane is

is a tribute to the legendary
