Shippagan - NB Fisheries and Aquaculture Festival Run
August 19th, 2019

On July 21st, the 7th edition of the Run / Walk activity was held as part of the New Brunswick Festival of Fisheries and Aquaculture. A new youth portion was part of the activity this year. With a focus on promoting health and an active lifestyle, the organizers wanted to give an accessible, family-like image to the event. Sun, music, warm-up in a lively group are some elements that made this morning a success.

For the first time in many years, we brought back the 1km race for young people and their families. An obstacle course for the little ones was also installed on the site not to forget anybody and to occupy the families who had come to encourage their favorite runner ;-)

2019 participation

10 km: 24 people registered

5 kmcourse: 65 people registered

1 km: 20 children enrolled (with their family)

The event will certainly be back next year with the same desire to keep the family aspect accessible to all.
