In 1988, the Ottawa City Council approved the development of the Sue Holloway Fitness Park, in recognition of Sue’s accomplishments at the 1984 Los Angeles Summer Olympics. The fitness park comprises a series of exercise stations and pathways.
The stations are located in close proximity to each other and involve 21 separate exercises that can be done by participants based on their levels of physical fitness. Walking / jogging trails next to the stations lead to three short bridges one of which has steps built along the deck. The repetitions to be completed at each of the stations depend on the exercise to be performed and vary from beginner to competitor. A sign nearby titled: “Trim Trail” describes the benefit of this exercise program and provides a series of questions (Par-Q Test) to help participants determine if it is advisable for them to continue with the fitness test.
Number of Stations: 4
Wheelchair Accessible: No
Degree of Difficulty: From beginner to competitor
