Forestdale Heights Lodge Toronto Marathon 2024 |
|
This year’s Toronto Marathon managed to attract 18,000 people who were registered to run or walk. Despite the rainy weather, we maintained another longstanding Lodge program. It was rainy, but we managed! We had many volunteers to help. This year, it was just me and former FHL member Mark Spergel who came to help! We were not alone, though, as we had many volunteers to help us.Like the past few years, our water station – the first on the marathon’s route – was set up on the east side of Yonge Street, just north of Sheppard Avenue at Harlandale Avenue. Together with dedicated volunteers, we filled glasses with water and Powerade for the runners, first for the marathon, 30 minutes later for the runners/walkers taking part in the half marathon walk, and the half-marathon run a half hour afterwards. As well as the marathons, which started at Yonge and Sheppard, 10K and 5K events also left from the CNE. Report & Photos by |
