We invite you to join us on Sunday, March 29 at 9:30 AM for our 4th annual memorial fundraising walk in memory of Gordie. As we walk together, we’ll honour our special boy and raise funds to support the SUDC Foundation.
After Gordie passed away, we connected with the SUDC Foundation and have been using their resources for over four years, including support groups, connecting with the SUDC community, and their speaker series. We truly believe that by raising awareness and funding for this unique foundation and their research efforts into unexplained child deaths, we can one day create a world without SUDC. Gordie’s infectious smiles and hearty giggles brought joy to everyone he met.
Registration is free, and donations to the SUDC Foundation in Gordie’s memory are greatly appreciated. Please register above so we know you’ll be joining us. Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to walking with you!

BackRoads Brews + Shoes Track Fest
runners, take your mark!
Experience our 3rd annual track festival, with race distances for all ages!
Get ready for our 3rd annual summer track festival - presented by New Balance! On the evening of Friday, July 10th, we're replacing the roads with the track over at College Avenue Secondary School in Woodstock!
With several distance options and exciting disciplines, there’s an event for all ages, paces, and members of the running community! And don’t worry - your little ones won’t miss out! We’ve got 3 races for them too!
We strongly believe that giving kids the opportunity to participate in sport will lead them on to a healthy lifestyle, fulfilment in school, and a strong sense of work ethic and belonging. Our kids races range from 100M, 400M (1 lap), and 1KM (2.5 laps). Kids MUST be registered by a parent or guardian. A FANTASTIC way to get your children excited, and involved in an approachable sport!
This year, we're capping off the evening with an Elimination Mile and a team 4 x 400m relay!
What is an Elimination Mile? A mile is 4 laps around the track and the last runner on each lap will be eliminated from the race. Whoever is remaining on the last lap will race for a New Balance Prize Pack!
Summer Track Fest is a grassroots & unsanctioned event, with the goal of bringing our running community together as the sun goes down. Use this event as a time trial on a soft surfaced track, where pancake flat running, fast times, and cheering on your friends, children, and community is a guarantee!
Your entry fee will go towards our efforts in booking out the venue, with further proceeds going towards youth programs put on by London Western Track and Field Club. The Kids 100m and 400m events are FREE!
There will be complimentary water and electrolytes for everyone, along with treats for participants!
