About the event​

This is a fast and flat run on pavement trough Gates Park and on the gravel surface of the beautiful trails of Colony Farm Park in Port Coquitlam.

You can challenge yourself to achieve your personal best time, or you can just have fun and enjoy the company of fellow runners surrounded by the beauty of nature.

Our PA Announcer will keep you informed of the day's schedule, play good music to keep you entertained before and after the race, and announce your name when you cross the finish line.

All runners will receive a Finisher medal and there will be race recovery products and refreshments available after the race. 

The event will be timed using the IPICO Sport chip timing system that allows for accurate and live results. 

 

This event is part of the Port Coquitlam Sport Festival, which is an initiative created by the Port Coquitlam Sport Alliance. Additionally, part of the proceeds from the event will go towards supporting the KidSport Tri-Cities Foundation.
