Another course record set this year!

Congratulations to Mira Lamb of Guelph, who set a record in the female 19 and under age group. She beat the record set in 1991 by 50 seconds and came in with the time of 2:09:05.

Mira lives and trains in Guelph and has her eyes set on the Muskoka Ironman 70.3 in July. Well done, Mira!

Meet another runner doing extraordinary things! Teresa Novick is setting records at ATB in multiple age group categories.

She broke the age category record last year for 65-69, then she broke it again this year running a 2:21:50.

She also holds the 60-64 age category course record.

Way to go Teresa!

Incredible job done by dozens of volunteers, dedicated runners, committed fundraisers and of course the spectators who lined the course to cheer on every runner.

This race of ours, is also your race. It’s for all of us. Nothing defines community quite like ATB!

Thank you to every single person who believes in the power of this event and has continued to show up for St. Joseph's Healthcare and Foundation and believe in the crucial work it does to serve our community and make us all better.

Way to go, Hamilton!
