This past weekend, some of our team took on the @21kdemontreal 5K race! ❤️

It may have rained, but that didn’t stop us from having an absolute blast on the course.

This was an extra special trip since it was our first time returning since passing the 21K de Montréal baton over to the amazing team at Courons MTL. 🫶

Congratulations to all the participants who braved the weather and raced their hearts out, and a huge thank you to Courons MTL, volunteers, staff, and partners who made it all happen. This was a weekend to remember! 🤠

Make your miles really count! 🌎

Our Impact Bib is for participants who want to tread a little lighter. Skip the race shirt, and sport the Impact Bib instead, and we’ll send a donation to our featured charity on your behalf. It’s a win-win for you and the planet! 💚

Contrary to the popular saying, we believe in leav

Contrary to the popular saying, we believe in leaving more than just footprints 👣. That’s why we work with our sustainability partner charities @transcanadatrail and @cdntreesforlife year-round. 💚

Every stride you take at a Canada Running Series race contributes to their environmental programs. Whether improving trail access across our beautiful country, or planting trees so the next generation can enjoy them, their commitment to environmental stewardship aligns seamlessly with our organizational values.🌲

You can fundraise or donate to these charities during your registration process, or you can fundraise for them through our Charity Challenge program (if you’re registered for the Vancouver Half Marathon or TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon) to make a positive impact with your race day. Since beginning our partnership in 2022, our participants have helped raise over $150,000 to support these partnerships. ✨

Thank you to everyone who’s supported these efforts! 🌎🌱
