RSRaces has some exciting news to share with the town of Milton! The 2nd Annual Milton Half Marathon, 5km Run/Walk and 1km Kids/Family Run has been scheduled for Sunday, September 15, 2013!

We had an amazing inaugural event last year, hitting our goals of 500+ participants! Mayor Gordan Krantz made an appearance and started off the Half and 5km races by taking part in a light fitness warmup and officially commencing the start of each race! Ed Whitlock, Milton's own heroic Master runner, raced and set a new M80+ Half Marathon Record and unofficial World Record in his division. We had Katrina Lee, a Mizuno Elite Athlete, also racing and won the females race! Katrina is also proud to call Milton her hometown! Tons of people from the town woke up and were apart of the day too, by cheering and supporting all of the events that were happening! Over $2000 was raised and donated to KidSport Ontario, a foundation giving less fortunate children the opportunity to participate in organized sport! It truly was a fantastic Sunday morning!

We ARE listening and we know there is always room for improvement! This year, we are happy to announce the addition of a 1km Kids/Family Run that will take place at 8:00am. Exactly 30min prior to the start of the Half and 45min prior to the 5km, which gives time for anyone partaking in the longer distance races to see, or run, with their little ones. We are hoping to be more GREEN! In a variety of ways and some of those are top secret and a big surprise! However, we will have more green and blue bins provided at the finish and will have educated individuals helping to clean up the route. We are working on getting more entertainment and motivation for our participants along the route, as some spots seemed a little dry last year.

It is an amazing feeling to be apart of a community that health and wellness is of top priority! We hope that Milton will come together more and more each year, and help support this fantastic event.
