Fin Island Trail Run offers free fun for the family
Runners can expect to see the sun brush through the trees with blue skies overhead at the Fin Island Trail Run Aug. 24.
The Trail Run is an event for all ages and athletic types. Broken up into four separate runs, the kid’s one kilometre run will begin at 8 a.m. with the 5 km, 10 km, and Long Course runs kicking off at 8:30 a.m. each from the start/finish line at Destination Battlefords.
Those taking part in each of the runs are welcome to run together if they so choose. The trail will be the same, just varied in distance. Depending on weather and the condition of the island, the Long Course will likely be between 14 and 16 kilometers.
Organizer of the event, Jes Kohut said the run is a great way to take in the beauty of the area.
