For several years, the Delta Ground
Pounders Running Club developed and proudly organized one of the first half
marathon runs in the Lower Mainland. After numerous new running events
prospered, the Delta Half Marathon was in jeopardy of being cancelled. Team
Coastal Cycling Club is a fixture in the 3 communities of Delta. The active
cycling club has many members that run for triathlons and cross training. We
saw it fit to maintain Delta history and continue the fun local run. We have
added a 5 km distance and involved our local North Delta Rotary Club to cook
a great pancake breakfast.
The run was re-introduced with a new
certified course in 2007. It has been described by previous entrants as a
great PB course.
For your entry fee, we feel we offer
great value on a personal best course that is flat and fast. Proceeds from
the run are donated to North Delta Rotary Club to help with local projects
and Team Coastal Cycling Club to support a youth program for learning to
ride and race.
We thank you for your support with our
causes and hope we can share in your athletic endeavours!
