There is one thing you can focus on that will increase your results in pretty much every single area of your life: becoming more socially confident. It’s the most important thing for your longevity, your sense of well being, your career success, your happiness quotient.

McDonalds, 808 York Mills Rd · Toronto, on, Toronto, ON, CA🌿🚶 LEASIDE SPUR TRAIL, WILKET CREEK & EDWARDS GARDENS WALK (10KM) 🚶🌿
Forest Trails, Flowing Creeks & A Spring Garden Pause
Some of the best parts of Toronto don’t feel like the city at all.
Join us for a longer, energizing social walk through some of the city’s most scenic green spaces — from quiet trails to winding creeks, with a beautiful stop at the gardens along the way.
We’ll explore the Leaside Spur Trail, connect into the peaceful paths of Wilket Creek Park, and make our way toward Edwards Gardens — where you’ll have time to wander, take in the seasonal blooms, and enjoy a little moment of calm in the middle of the walk.
This is not a formal tour.It’s a social, active walk with great scenery and even better company.

🚶♂️ What We’ll DoWe’ll begin at McDonald’s and head onto the Leaside Spur Trail, easing into the walk before connecting with Wilket Creek’s forested paths.
From there, we’ll continue toward Sunnybrook Park and into Edwards Gardens, where we’ll take a relaxed break so you can explore, enjoy the flowers, and recharge.
After our stop, we’ll loop back along the trails, returning to our starting point.
Once we’re back, those who want can grab a bite at Jersey Mike's Subs for a well-earned lunch. 🥪
No pressure to join — totally optional.***
