The Lakeland Runaway and Walk on the Wild Side is held in early May. It's a fundraiser for the Lakeland Rustlers Cross Country Running program
There are several different races to register for including a half marathon, 5 km & 10 km runs, 5 km & 10 km walks, as well as a 2 km kids walk/run. All races take place in the beautiful Vermilion Provincial Park.
Vermilion is 200 km east of Edmonton on the Yellowhead (#16) highway. Check out driving directions to Vermilion plus town maps. Once you get here, you can follow the signs to the park.
Whether walking or running, you'll enjoy the cross country terrain, scenery and even wildlife in the Beckie Scott Recreation Area. There are bathrooms along the race, water and refreshment stations about every 3 km, and the trail is clearly marked. Top 3 male and female finishers in each run category receive medals.
Note: the Lakeland Runaway & Walk on the Wildside is part of the Denwood Outdoor Athletics Club 2015 Series.
