As we are into the second summer month, Calgary Roadrunners Club (CRR) is pleased to continue our running events series. Get ready to earn bragging rights!

The events are free, open to all runners (not only CRR members), and the Club offers a number of randomly drawn prizes each month. We love our members, so they will receive twice as many ballots in the draws. You can be a Club member too!

Each summer month will see two types of CRR Sponsored events: 

1. Streaks of at least one mile a day, and 
2. Age-graded “races” of various distances. 

The Streak – similar to the Strides December Running streak, and our own June and July events which we hope you enjoyed, it’ll require the highest level of commitment to go outside, and run, jog, or walk at least one NAUTICAL mile (1.852km) in August – yes, we decided to make it more difficult for you to run. To make it even harder, you may want to run this distance in the water, or on a sandy beach. Or in the snorkeling gear.

There will be draw prizes for those who have successfully completed the streak, and kids under 13 will also be eligible for ice cream gift certificates, in addition to regular draw prizes.

You will need to report your monthly streak completion on this ⇒ Google Form ⇐ within a week after month end (the Form becomes active on the last day of the month). We will draw prizes and announce winners on the 8th of the following month, and the winners will have until the end of that month to pick up their prizes.

Our Virtual Race Director for the August events are Mardy and David Roberts – both are awesome athletes!
