Fundraising run of Hornby's shoreline happening Aug. 9
The third annual event invites runners, walkers and relay teams, with monitors along parts of the route and $20 suggested registration, organizers said.
- On Sunday, Aug. 9, Ben Kersen will run the 35 km circumference of Hornby Island to raise funds for the Hornby Island Athletic Association's youth and elder programs at Joe King Park.
- This marks the third year Kersen has circumambulated the island; at 67, he aims to "inspire and motivate others" to maintain fitness goals at any age.
- Starting at 8 a.m. at Seabreeze Lodge, the route involves rugged, technical terrain; Kersen notes the remainder can be "pretty gnarly" with log scrambling.
- Registration is suggested at $20, with donations accepted through Canadahelps.org, and participants of all skill levels are welcome to run, walk, or form a relay team.
- Monitors will be stationed along parts of the route to assist runners, while Kersen advises participants to select course sections matching their personal ability.
