JEALOUS
In Ottawa we have only 1 and a half tracks – 1 being the Louis Riel full 400m track and Carleton has a dinky 2 lane track. Nothing else and both are super expensive and restrictive. If I talk about the LR dome, it is usually accompanied with lots of swearing, lol.

I’m located in Philly, and there is often a struggle to find usable tracks, either indoors or outdoors. This is a great resource for Toronto runners!
Ange @ Cowgirl Runs says
I need to do more research on the tracks available in Calgary. A lot of them aren’t cheap to go to, which is a major bummer because I’d really like to start doing more track work.

I feel pretty lucky about the cost of the track I use now! I’m north of Toronto, and there’s an indoor track in Newmarket that is $1.50 per use (or cheaper if you get a membership). It’s only a 100m track, but it’s a great option in the winter.
Thanks for posting this! It’s great info to have on hand :)
Carmy says
That’s a pretty great deal!

We do not have many indoor tracks near where I live which actually has been difficult for some of my track workouts for Boston that I had to modify for road. You have so many great tracks available!

Just wanted to let you know about some incorrect information in your list. For the Toronto Track and Field Centre (at York U), the monthly fee is actually $26.75. $111.75 is the Indoor Season membership fee (Oct. 15 – Apr. 30). Daily fee is $5.50.
The complete fee schedule is here: https://www.toronto.ca/data/parks/pdf/toronto-track-and-field-centre-fee-schedule.pdf
