The first Athletics Canada age-group 10k road championships was held on Sunday May 3rd in Windsor, Ontario, in conjuction with Running Flat and Le Chocolat. On a beautiful sunny day in the border city, runners of all ages tested themselves against the clock and each other for a chance to take home one of the fine age-group medals designed by Ashworth Awards.
Race Director Chris Uszynski was well pleased with the event: “RunningFlat and the City of Windsor are proud to have hosted this event and show off the gorgeous waterfront course overlooking the Detroit Skyline. Le Chocolat has a natural draw as the only run in the World to give away 3L of Wine (the Pele Purse, from Pelee Island Winery) as well as a tonne of Chocolate and sweets at the end of the race.”
