2025 Toronto Waterfront Marathon & Half Recap 📖

Congratulations to on a HUGE improvement from last year's Toronto Waterfront Marathon.
Running 32:58 faster than last year! 🤯

2025 3:17.23 vs 2024 3:50:21 😲

Following a program, smart training and putting in the work pays off with a massive PB! 🎉
Looking forward to seeing what another year of training will provide for results.

Great, solid effort by in the half marathon. Moving from Toronto to Nova Scotia & starting a new position a few months ago took away from training as much as last year's 5k (21:02).
Showed up on race day and put in a respectable half marathon time of 1:51:44.
Had a positive attitude towards the race, and had fun being back in the city. 😀

Great work by both Eduardo & Brendon. 👏👏👏

2024 Toronto Waterfront 5k

Solid efforts by & at Saturday's 5k.

Sharlane ran 18:32 (3 second off of PB), and Brendon ran 21:02.

Great day for a race.

5k PB Alert! 🏃‍♀️🏆🚨

ran a new 3 second PB of 18:29 at the 2024 Summer Shores 5k on Labour Day.
Finishing as the 1st Female OA, and 4th OA!

Fantastic summer of PB's continues! Also ran new PB's on the track in the 800m & 1500m!
Keep up the smart training, and achieving your running goals! 🧠📚

Way to go, Sharlane! 👏

Late, but fun post 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🍔

Fun evening on the Island for the 2024 Sunset Shuffle 5k.

Hot, sticky night on August 8th, but well worth it for the post race burgers.

Welcome back, Luis! 😁

After taking a bit of a break from training to complete the required hours to become a fully certified architect, is back training with ASPIRE Athletics!

Looking forward to this weekend as he'll be in Toronto for a little fitness test by running the Half Marathon.

Excited to have Luis back with the team as he builds for a competitive 2023 triathlon season. 🏊🚴🏃

Welcome back, friend! 👋

Jump for Joy! 100 km running week! 🏃‍♀️

has been steadily increasing her mileage.
This week she hit a new milestone in cracking 100k for the week (Oct 2nd - 8th) - Grand total for the week... 105.4k!

Big training block for the month of October.

Way to go, Sharlane! 😁

Late, but very proud post 😁🏆

& ran a 5k PB (18:55) and a Marathon debut (3:32:25), respectively, 3 WEEKS POST-COVID!!!! 😱

Incredible results overall, but even more impressive was the fact that the month leading up to the races, the training was piecemeal at best due to illness.

Sharlane thought she had run 5k in 19:09, subsequently the time was corrected to 18:56 (2nd photo), and ultimately the official result was a new PB of 18:55!

Brendon's training was fantastic until he was hit with COVID. Running was essentially non-existent for 3 weeks, so how the marathon would go was anyone's guess.
Brendon had a remarkable debut result of 3:32:25! We're also pretty sure he was the top Clydesdale (200 lbs+). perhaps next year the race organizers will add an Athena/Clydesdale division?! 🤷‍♂️

Amazing efforts and results Sharlane & Brendon!!! Looking forward to a great summer and fall of races. 😀
