Canada Day Run

With regards to the Canada Day 5K and Dominion Day Dashes – A comment from one of our participants – Riston – “It was well run (no pun intended) — the volunteers did a top notch job. The cheering on by the volunteers was cute too, and I particularly like the last marathon-esque loop (as clearly captured in the picture of me crossing the finish line.) I liked that it was called Dominion Day Dashes…. very old school.”
