This was supposed to be our race day post, but that time was intercepted by the weather. So now we have your attention! We want to talk about how grateful we are that we get to work together and build community with other races. Especially Wise Raven trail race and Happy Trails racing are partners in building community. We posted earlier about Run Waterloo as well, as they provide our start/finish arch. We all help each other and volunteer at each other’s races as well. It is how we can build and grow a strong community. Thank you everyone!

This family is such a great example of the things we get to see at Conquer the Canuck! Hildeberto Filho has been running the race for a few years in a row, Kenia just completed her first ultra 50km, and their amazing kids were helping all our runners by volunteering all day. This is just one example of the sense of community. There are many more! Thank you guys!

After speaking with both Spaetzel Photo and The Big Bas we have learned there are 3900 photos to sort! Both these amazing photographers will be working hard to do this, and we promise to let you know when the photos are up!

We are very excited to welcome back at our trail race. We love that they use environmentally friendly way to move around the trails to keep an eye on our runners and of course provide medical services we hope are not needed.
