E-Race Cancer Half Marathon

(Note: Generated by Wordpress AI. Enjoy): The E-Race Cancer Half Marathon took place on October 22, 2023, in Bridgeport, NY. It was a small-town race with a unique course, including paved roads, leaf-covered paths, and even a section through someone’s backyard. With limited crowd support but a festive Halloween theme, the event offered a 5km, 10km, and half marathon, with 93, 28, and 72 finishers respectively. Post-race activities included a party with music, food, and drinks. Despite its quirks, it was commended as being well-organized.

Around The Bay with Harold

Start and finish in the FirstOntario Centre, so no waiting around in the cold at the beginning, and a super stadium entry on the finish! The course is a Classic ‘Older Than Boston’, since 1894. At 30K, not your standard distance, and plenty of characters on the route that make this a must-do at least once. Final 10K has rolling hills, and it’s a 2K downhill slope to the finish!
