After a weekend of fast times and hard miles, when all was said and done, after every kilometer of every leg of the Athletics Canada 42K Relay Challenge was complete, the west was often the best.
Starting with running royalty, the BC-based Quarantine Queens took home the women’s elite division with a time of 2:22:39. Two teams from the BC Endurance Project finished 1-2 in the mixed division, with BCEP White besting their teammates BCEP Red by just over a minute, with their time of 2:11:46. Ontario’s Backroads Bandits took Eastern Canada’s only win, clocking a time of 2:12:41 to lead the men’s division.
With runners putting down fast times from coast to coast, The Athletics Canada 42K Relay Challenge made for an exciting weekend of racing! Check out all the elite division action here.
While the elite teams have crossed the finish line, the event not over for the public! Anyone may assemble a team and join the Open four-person marathon relay by registering on the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon website.
