About Jordan
Jordan Strickland inspired "Jordan's Run the Runway" 5K run and walk series. For the first time, Jordan's Run the Runway is coming to the Chatham-Kent Municipal Airport! All funds raised will stay local to the Sarnia-Lambton community, and support the Y's financial assistance program so that everybody can access the Y.
"Jordan loved new adventures, and he was not afraid to try anything. One of the things he loved most in life was going to the YMCA Camp Queen Elizabeth on Beausoleil Island, where he attended many summers as a camper, and nine years as a volunteer counsellor.
Jordan would be turning 37 this year, and we are so grateful for the many friends he met over the years, and who he introduced to us. Thank you so much for Running the Runway to remember our amazing Jordan, and also for his CQE and Siskinds families and friends.
Janice, Paul, and Daniel Strickland"
Prizes
The top male and female finisher will receive their choice of a brand-new pair of running shoes from our official running partner, BackRoads Brews + Shoes. Even if you're not aiming for a top finish, there are lots of additional prizes given away every year to random registered runners, making Jordan's Run the Runway: Chatham-Kent a truly inclusive event!
