    . . . regardless of what you're training for. This is positioned to be a winter "A" or "B" effort or a training race for other spring goals, such as the half, 30k, or full marathon.

    Join us at the 29th annual Re-Fridgee-Eighter. Explore all historical results and records at results.runwaterloo.com.
