  Back for a second year, this family-friendly event is moving to an exciting new location at the iconic Willow Tree Golf Course. A cornerstone of Southwestern Ontario’s golf scene since opening in 1914, Willow Tree offers a perfect backdrop for runners and spectators alike. Bring your friends to relax by the firepits, grab a drink at The Balcony or on the patio, and cheer on the athletes. The start and finish line will be conveniently located near the clubhouse.

  Race format: Run or walk as many laps of a loop that will be approximately 2.5km, as you can in 6 hours, from 8am - 2pm. You must finish your last lap before the 2pm cut-off.

  There is the option to run as a relay team of 3 participants.

  Prizes will be for the furthest distance covered (male/female), the furthest distance for a team, and anyone over 50k.

  We’re excited to include a free 200 m toddler race at 10:00 a.m. It is preferred you register your toddler in advance, but day-of registration is available as well.

  The 2.5 km youth race at 10:30 a.m. (ideal for ages 6–12) will run on the same course as the ultra. You are welcome to register with your child and run it with them!

  A portion of the proceeds from all races will be going to the Youth Center in town, "37 Frank street".

  Welcome to the Final Trot to the Beach

  Welcome to the Final Trot to the Beach

  Hello everyone,

  This year’s Trot to the Beach will be unlike any other, because it will be the final time we gather at the starting line together.

  Over 22 years ago, John and Annie TeSligte started something special. Twelve years ago, my family had the honour of carrying it forward. But the truth is, this event has never belonged to one person or one family. It belongs to this community, to every runner, walker, volunteer, sponsor, and supporter who has shown up year after year.

  Together, we’ve done something incredible. Over the life of this event, you have helped raise roughly $250,000 for local charities, families in need, and community programs. A QUARTER MILLION DOLLARS! That’s real impact. Real help. Real change.

  But the numbers only tell part of the story.

  Trot to the Beach has been about friendships formed on the road, teams running in honour of loved ones, kids and adults crossing their first finish line, costumes, laughter, hugs at the beach, and that shared feeling that we were part of something bigger than ourselves.

  So this year, let’s celebrate it properly.

  Join us on Sunday, June 14th for the half marathon, 5K, and Tot Trot.

  Bring a team. Run for someone you love. Stay for the memories. Jump in the lake. Take it all in.

  From the bottom of my heart, thank you for the years of support, the stories, the energy, and the difference you’ve helped make in our community.

  It was never just a race. It was our community in motion so let’s finish it together and make this final Trot one we’ll never forget.
