Ottawa Race Weekend Running
Of course, when we’re not volunteering, we’re part of the race itself. With so many distances to choose from, something for everyone who was keen to run. Here’s our initial attempt to get everyone running – again if we missed anyone – pass that photo along for inclusion. It was a super busy weekend and we did our best to grab photos of everyone on the course – wearing our stylish new RunK2J gear was super helpful to make you stand out, so thanks for that.

After Party
We always, the wrap up the Winter/Spring running clinic which finishes with the Ottawa Race Weekend. It was great to have everyone over for our traditional Pot-Luck after party swapping experiences, no boring speech, some fun team group shots, and seeking out what would be your next goals for the summer/fall running season.
