Running will begin at 6pm, and will be led by Volunteers from the Saint John Trail Running group. Please arrive at 5:30pm for registration.

Unfortunately, due to some issues with the printers, shirts are not available for this week's session. We will have shirts ready for distribution at next Sunday's session. My sincerest apologies for the inconvenience.

Bring water bottles as we will have water and Gatorade filling stations and some snacks for the end of the run.

Parents with children under the age of 7 (preschool and kindergarten) are required to run/walk with the kids.
