Saturday 5K Run Series

Saturday, April 7, 2012

The Run Ottawa Club will kick off its latest initiative on Saturday, March 3, 2012 with our monthly 5K runs. These will be staged on the first Saturday of each month(except for November as noted in the dates below).

These events are geared to runners of all ages and abilities and designed to provide an opportunity to run at one’s desired pace over the 5K distance. Participants will sign in between 8:15 and 8:55 a.m. with a mass start at 9:00 a.m. Our digital clock will be posted at the finish line, times called out as each person finishes and then records the time on the sign in sheet.

The route will be coned, marshals stationed where necessary and a portable toilet on site. Come dressed ready to run as there are no facilities available. There is no charge to participate. Those unable to run who can give us an hour or so of your time, this would be most appreciated.
