January 1, 2012...what are YOU doing?








Join us for the first race of the new series in Brantford, Jan 1st.
We have a 10 km race that I am running (ok I'm putting it out here...I'd love to run a 35:30, which would get me into the Vancouver Sun Run).
We have a 5 km race that my husband (fyi in his words, he is "not a runner") is running.
We have a 1 km fun run that our three kids will be doing (ok, someone will push Leah in the Chariot since she can't even crawl yet!).
See you there?

Friday November 18/2011 at 09:30:26 AM


Some of Brantford’s finest runners have thrown their support behind a new six-race series known as the Brantford Tournament of Races.

Olympian Kevin Sullivan, marathon mom Krista Duchene, rising track star Brock Timmerman and elite marathon runner Rick Mannen are just some of the names of successful Brantford runners supporting the inaugural 2012 event. The tournament has taken four existing events and added two more.

The inaugural run will take place Jan. 1 with the New Year’s Day Resolution Races, a new event to Brantford. The series will also feature another new event to Brantford, Summer Night Road Races on Sept. 6.

In addition to the new events, the series will feature the Brantford Rotary Classic on April 29, Great Canadian Trail Races on July 1, the Brantford Grand Trail Run on July 28 and Walk-Run for the River on Sept 23.

At the end of the series, the runner with the most points combined in individual categories will be declared the 2012 champion. For more information on the Brantford Tournament of Races go to www.likerunning.ca.
