Coffee Runs

What is one of the best ways to cool-down after a morning run? Getting a cup of joe with the coolest group of people around!

We started ending our weekend runs at coffee shops on November 7, 2021, beginning with Found Coffee on College St. Since then, we have tried over 30 coffee shops around Toronto.
