Laying it on the Line
Congratulations to all runners who threw down and pushed their limits. Thanks for helping us set a new standard for podium celebrations, and to Culture Athletics for putting money on the line to bring out the city’s fastest!
Dressed to Impress
It’s not just about speed, it’s about energy. Congratulations to our “best fit” winners and thanks to Park & Province for sponsoring both our fashion prizing event photos.
Fun for All
Crossing the finish line is a victory for every participant. And no one on the track had more energy or fun than our ‘Lanterne Rouge’ winners who walked/ran their way into last place and a prize from ON Running.
