Hi, There are bloody loads of canals in Birmingham! The old cliche is "more canals than Venice" which is true, however we are qutie a bit bigger than Venice.
The nearest canal is just a short walk from the conference venue, and it's even closer to some of the hotels on Broad Street. http://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=52.47742&mlon=-1.90982&zoom=16&layers=B000FTF The red dotted line is the footpath/towpath, and the blue bit is ... well the canal :) I keep plugging OpenStreetMap because it has all this data that is just no available in Google Maps. You should be able to plan a decent route using that map, feel free to print it off and hand it to your friends as it is Creative Commons-BY-SA Have fun on your run, if I am feeling particularly healthy I may join you.
