Canada Life Forest City Road Races

I've always enjoyed running as a way to fight stress and keep myself feeling healthy. I always use the FCRR as a nice goal for the Spring. It's a fun race that is always so well organized.

I got my first running medal at the fun run. It was so much fun. And at the finish line I got to give Ronald McDonald a high-five.

Forest City Road Races combine the greatest pieces of big-city races with the care, dedication and gusto of a locally run event. The lead up to the race is interactive and involved… On race day, the atmosphere is incredible. Forest City Road Races leave nothing to be desired, it is what keeps me coming back year after year to defend the Half-Marathon title.

I have run the 5k event for three years now.  This is the first race I run each season.  I love that the race is timed and so well organized!  The volunteers are great and I love that they encourage us by name.  I am enjoying the tree medals and look forward to a new one each year.
