What:

Benson Steel 5 KM
Royal Containers 10 KM
Kinetico Kids 1 Mile Fun Run

Why:

We want to get families and children out and active and enjoying the beautiful fall weather. To promote active living and help the local Caledon Community Food Bank.

Format:

Flat 1 mile and 5km courses on the Caledon Rail Trail. The 10 KM Run will be 50% on the flat rail trail and 50% on the rolling Centreville Creek Road. All races will start and finish at the Caledon soccer fields behind Caledon’s City Hall. This was a new location for 2010.

Kids Free:

Once again, C3 and Kinetico will allow all kids in the 1 mile run to race for free. In 2010, over 1100 kids helped organizers set a national record. We would like to set a new national record this year.
Each child gets a t-shirt, finisher’s medal, and post-race food; all absolutely free! No race in Canada is doing this kind of work.

You do have to register your son or daughter on-line (at no cost) so organizers know shirt sizes and quantity of food to provide.

Charity:

Caledon Community Services (food and cash donations)

Costs – 5 KM & 10 KM:

$30 before Sept. 22
$35 Sept. 22 – 28
