Welcome back for the 14th Annual Foodfare-WPS Half Marathon. The last couple of years have been very special as we have celebrated the life and dedication of a great Manitoban in Jo Schiewe. With Jo in our hearts we continue to plan our race to support the Manitoba Division of the Canadian Cancer Society.
Our big news this year is that Foodfare has joined us the title sponsor of the event! This is great for the runners on a number of fronts but we will share those details as the year progresses! In short this great Winnipeg family business whom have been with our event since day 1 are committed to making a better event that in turn supports a great charity!
The race is set for May 6, 2018 and again we will host a Half Marathon, 2 Person Relay and 5K event. We have enjoyed great support for the community with 12 straight sell outs and we hope to continue that trend.
For the month of October we will offer an early bird rate for those who would like to save some money and secure a spot. We will continue to offer free entry to those whom choose to raise pledges/donations for the Canadian Cancer Society.
