The Merville 15K road race will take place on Sunday, April 7.
This is the 23rd year that the River Runners Running club has been hosting this event which is race #7 in the Vancouver Island Race Series. The race route follows quiet country roads and is a fairly flat and fast course. One feature that makes this race unique from other Island Series races are our pace bunnies, who keep runners on track for a specific finishing time and amuse the spectators.
The race start is 11 a.m. with an early start for walkers and slower runners at 10:15 a.m. If you register before April 3, 2013 the fee is $25. Day of race registration is $35. You can register on line at www.racedaytiming.ca; mail your entry to the River Runners, Box 11, Campbell River, V9W 4Z9 or drop off your entry at the Sportsplex; attention Linda Nagle. Day of race registration takes place at the Merville Hall 9-10:15 a.m.
