Racers are ready for a cherished North Vancouver event, with the 18th annual Strachan Hartley Legacy Foundation Run scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 20 at Handsworth Secondary.

Since its inception in 2007, the run has raised more than $590,000 for youth in need in the Downtown Eastside. All funds raised by the entirely volunteer-run event go to Streetfront, an alternate school in East Vancouver that uses education, sports and outdoor adventure to make a difference in the lives of youth.

Racers can sign up as an individual or a team, with Top Team and Top Fundraiser awards up for grabs.

Runners and walkers of all ages and abilities are welcome to tackle a 10-kilometre race, a walker/jogger/stroller/dog-friendly five-kilometre event, or the Kids Fun Race. For more details or to register, visit the event website at shlf.ca.
