If you are enjoying your off-season and are looking for a low-key event to introduce your friends or family to the intensity and challenges of a running race, or you are NOT in the off-season and want to test your current level of fitness, the Cares Run for mental heath in Abbotsford would be a great opportunity for you.
The run is taking place at Rotary Stadium in Abbotsford on Saturday October 15th at 9 AM. It features 1K, 5K, and 10K distances.
I had a chance to speak with Cares Run organisers Irene Heinrichs and Lesley Shebib about the history and purpose of the run. You can hear the interview below and you can get more information by following this link http://www.cares.ca/viewcategory/25
