SNAP Ajax - posts about our 4th Annual Running4Home

Not all the info is perfect, but any press is good press :)
Nice to get this exposure in our 4th year. Stay tuned for more pics and a final write-up soon.

SNAP Ajax - 4th Annual Running4Home

Year 4 is in the books...

What a great race on Saturday. We had a really good turnout, and are sure to have raised lots of money for Habitat Durham. The numbers aren't all crunched, but when they are we'll post them here.

We're so thankful for those who participated. It's amazing how people can come together for a cause...and for exercise.

We want to thank our volunteers who really made the morning what it was. They were full of energy and passion at every station. Our team was led so well by Janet Manafo. The feedback we received was all positive. Every year we keep getting better at what we're doing.

We also want to thank the sponsors for contributing to our event. You can find them all on the sponsor page. They were generous with their funds and some even their time.

Finally, we thank the local churches who partnered with us as well. The Village, Brooklin Village Church, King Street, Redeem the Commute, and Christian Life Centre. Isn't it cool to see local business and churches work together to make our community better?

Stay tuned for pictures, posted results, and final numbers.

Take note that next year will be our 5th anniversary. We want to make it a big deal. How? We're planning to get a few more sponsors that will allow us to get medals for each runner. Keep checking our site for dates and then put it in your calendar early!!!

Peace, Love & Recycle,
Jonathan
Race Director
