There are only two weeks left in the 2012 edition of the Comox Valley Road Runners Learn to Run Clinic. The final session will be held on March 17 and will consist of a 5K Fun Run. As it is Saint Patrick鈥檚 Day, and the emphasis is on fun, participants are asked to wear green and help celebrate.
The event is open to runners and walkers of all levels. It is free for clinic participants and $10 for everyone else. The start/finish area is outside the Florence Filberg Centre (411 Anderton Ave., Courtenay). From the Filberg Centre, the mainly flat out-and-back course crosses the Puntledge River and continues along Condensory Road to Cessford Road. Runners then head up Cessford for approximately 250 metres before turning around and heading back.
Early registration starts at 8:45 for those who plan on starting early at 9:15 a.m. Registration ends at 9:30 a.m. as the main start is at 9:45 a.m. For more information see the CVRR website at www.cvrr.ca or call 250-338-1813. There will be food, refreshments and draw prizes following the event.
Signs will be posted along the race route and traffic may be slightly delayed between 9 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. The Comox Valley Road Runners and the participants thank all motorists in advance for your patience.
