During Ottawa race weekend, we have decided to put together a small team of runners whom we feel truly represent our brand. We thought it would be really interesting for us to tell their stories throughout the weekend.
You will be able to follow those stories as they unfold right here on this page!
As well as on Instagram and Facebook and our exclusive interviews and Ottawa Marathon coverage on our Youtube channel.
