#HarvestHalf

The 5th annual Harvest Half (and Quarter) Marathon

When Wesley Korir trains in Canada, he does so on the rural gravel roads of Wellesley Township.

The 2012 Boston Marathon Champion is accustomed to training the rural roads of Cherangany, Kenya. He co-founded the Kenyan Kids Foundation of Canada to support various initiatives there, and this race serves as a fantastic training and racing experience, as well as a fundraising opportunity for the KKFC. Visit the beautiful Wellesley Township this fall and see what this great event has to offer.
