Army Run

Ottawa, Ontario

From the cannon used as a ?starter?s pistol? to the ?dog-tag? medals all participants receive, this unique event is ?military? from start to finish. More than anything, though, Canada Army Run, is about Canadians and the Canadian Forces ? Air Force, Army, and Navy ? joining together in the spirit of camaraderie and mutual respect. It?s a chance for the troops to extend the military esprit de corps to Canadians and to thank them for their support. And, it?s an opportunity for Canadians to say thanks to the men and women who serve them in so many ways at home and abroad.

The Town of Ajax takes great pride in its waterfront - six kilometers of unspoiled park land stretching across the Town's southern border along the shores of Lake Ontario. This land, totaling over 150 acres, is used by residents and visitors who come to enjoy the scenic views, engage in recreational activities in the open spaces, and utilize the multi-use trail for a number of purposes. The asphalt trail, which is over four kilometers in length, is part of the Waterfront Trail that runs from Hamilton to Belleville. Participants of the Town's half marathon (21.1 km) will experience first-hand why the waterfront is often referred to as "the jewel of the south".
