Reece Taylor and Guy Mageau have recently joined the club and have been coming out to the weekday workouts. If you've been thinking about it but aren't sure if the club membership is for you, come out and join us for a session and 'try before you buy'! Workout or trail run, your preference. And remember, club members who volunteer at one SCA event get a free entry into another one. Also, for SCA-organized events on the Lower Coast you won't be charged the extra fee for signing up race day.
All welcome to join us for some fun interval sessions through the summer months! Tuesday mornings and Thursday evenings in Sechelt. See Training page
At the request of the SDBA/Canada Day organizing committee, we're bringing back the July 1st mile before the parade in Sechelt! Details and registration
These folks (former website clients of Teresa's) put on a great series of half marathons in California and Oregon, and now they're coming to BC! This is a BCA sanctioned event. Happening September 7: see website

Probably one of the warmest Vancouver Marathons ever: by 5am it was already 16 degrees, and it only got warmer from there, with full sunshine and very little wind. A nice day for spectators but tough for the full marathoners who started 1 hour after the halfers. Didn't seem to bother Helen though — she ran faster than she would have in Boston if she'd been allowed to finish, handily winning her age group (out of 6).
Marathon: 4:45:08 Helen Sabourin 1st F70-74 5:02:35 Litze Boghean Half Marathon: 1:49:52 Suzette Narbonne 1:51:13 Steve Merrick
Super nice sunny morning and lots of Coasters were running or walking. Club results:
