24th Annual Rotary Club of Barrie Fun Run/Walk

The Rotary Fun Run/Walk officially kicks off the summer on Barrie's beautiful waterfront. This annual event began 24 years ago when local companies and organizations entered teams of runners in a 20k relay race and walkers in a 5k walk.

The popular walk will continue and similar to last year, there will be 5k and 10k runs with all runners being timed. 1st, 2nd and 3rd place medals will be awarded to male and female runners.
