Run For Rick

The final PEI Roadrunners event of the season will be held Saturday, November 4th. It is a 5 km and 10 km run beginning at the Victoria Park clubhouse and following as much as possible the traditional Wally Rodd routes:

10 km: Out and back run starting at the South gate of Victoria Park. Turn Left onto VP Roadway heading east to Terry Fox Dr. Cross the crosswalk onto the boardwalk. Follow the course to the Cul de Sac on Madison Ave. Return the opposite direction back to the finish line. https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/5799492328/

5 km: Out and back on the same course, but turnaround point will be at 2.5K.

Proceeds from the event will go towards assisting Rick West, a long time Roadrunner, former president, and honorary lifetime member who was seriously injured in a traffic accident this past summer.
