Hello Organizers – This is the second year we have participated in the Run For A Way in Bracebridge. Both years it has been a great event for our family to participate in. Our kids love the Elf run and the Santa’s Village entrance is a real treat. Kudos to all the organizers! It was super to have the daycare service this year as well. The “medals” were welcomed and will be added to the wall. Our only feedback is to reconsider the 7:45 start time for the 5 km run. That was a little tough to co-ordinate – I know my brother’s family would have joined us for this if this race started a bit later considering they had a 45 minute drive. How about starting the 5 km race at 8:30 (ish) next year?
Anyways, keep running and many thanks to all the organizers!

Great point Jen, and thanks so much for the great feedback. It warms our hearts knowing we’ve created such a positive event for your family and others like yours. Regarding the start times…If you remember last year, we had a 9:30, 5k start AND manual timing. What happened was all of the runners arrived at the same time from both 5k and 21k. This was a little busy for us. So, this year we changed the start time to allow some spacing in-between the 2 events. However, the event received a gracious donation from the Royal Bank which allowed us to add chip timing this year. Awesome! This system allows us to have many runners arriving all at the same time. Again, Awesome! Bottom line? Next year we are planning to have chip timing which will allow for a later start for the 5k. Yea!
