“You didn’t come this far to only come this far”
For lots of the years, I hated running. During the COVID 19 Pandemic, I needed something to feel inspired. I started running. At first I felt like I wanted to quit. Every. Single. Run. Then over time, something started to happen: I actually started to enjoy it. Next thing I knew I actually craved it.
Turns out, I was not the only one. Cortes is full of runners. With all the beautiful trails and beaches it makes tonnes of sense. A few months ago, I started talking to some fellow amateur runners about putting together a Cortes Half Marathon and the rest is history.
Come and join us on September 19 at 8:30 AM to run or walk 5K, 10K, or the entire 22K. All proceeds from the run will go to The Last Stand for Forests in support of Vancouver Island’s Old Growth Forests.
