About
In support of crisis & immediate support services, this community event helps raise funds for Our House Addiction Recovery Centre and McDougall House. All proceeds (race registration fees less expenses, empties, silent auction) are split equally between the two recovery houses, with 100% of fundraising donations going directly to Our House Addiction Recovery Centre and/or McDougall House.
Pacers
Pace groups will be set for the 12K and 6K races based on declared target times on the registration form (Run for Recovery — Just for Today). Pacers will lead their respective waves and display pacer flags; choose a pace group that matches your planned finish time to stay with your target pacing throughout the race.
