It was my pleasure to volunteer my service to true heroes. Here is a personal link to the photos I took on 7/5. Feel free to download what you want. debpage.smugmug.com/2015-Fairfax-World-Police-Fire

Benoit Hebert Are you aware of any other photographers that could have pictures of the half marathon? I didn't appear on any of yous but they're really nice and I found a picture of a buddy of mine. Thank you. 8 years ago

Looking for half marathon event pins and a poster to add to my 1997 Calgary collection - any help is much appreciated!

Did they posted the half marathon photos?

Benoit Hebert I didn't see anything yet for the half and neither for the triathlon that was three days ago, I'm just hoping that will post them even after the games are over. 8 years ago

This was my 1st WPFG and had an amazing time. I got to know many of you personally during this past week and we had a great comradery. Stay safe and see you all in Montreal 2017!!!

Where is packet pickup and time?

Does anyone have an accurate map of the Half Marathon course? Better yet, an elevation map??? After the hilly triathlon today, I want to know what I'm getting into... Thanks!

Susan Maier I hear you Kristin. The Tri today was tough. A while back the elevation was posted for the Half........it also looked very hilly. 8 years ago

Craig Luecke I tracked this down. Going to place it on Facebook as well.

Benoit Hebert Any distance running event should have a clear map with water tables positions and idealy an elevation of the course, 8 years ago

I was photographing the 10k on Tuesday. What a great effort by all participants. Images from early and late in the race can be seen at tinyurl.com/pxjdla9

Great job to everyone who ran the 5K and 10K this morning and congratulations to the medal winners. It was a tough outing but well worth the effort. Thank you.

can someone confirm the start time for the 5k cross country? Is it 0830? It appears that the 10k starts at 0700 and the 5k is immediately following that.

I'm looking for a ONE team partner for 10k Cross Country - 40+ category.. Our Season Best about 34-35'

I ran part of the cross-country course this morning and was there about 0800. By that time, the sun was above the trees and the field was bathed in sunlight. It was 73 degrees this morning and could be just a warm on the 30th. Be prepared for a summer run. Although there will be 3 waterstations for the 10K and one for the 5K, it might be a good idea to carry water.

Handbooks are out, cross-country gives a time and venue for weigh in for heavyweight but the Half Mara doesn't. It was mentioned that it was going to be on the 4th July but no time or venue. Most folk will have plans on the 4th (probably) so an early weigh would be best but can some light be shed on this matter. If its in the middle of the afternoon i'll sack it off and race with the racing snakes lol

William D'Agostino I've been told that once you've weighed in as a heavy weight for any event, then you are in the heavy weight category and do not have to weigh in again. Hope that helps. 8 years ago

Byron Crook Awesome 8 years ago

Byron Crook Thank you 8 years ago

William D'Agostino BIG CHANGE: A decision was made to change the weigh in process. Weigh in for each of the running events will occur on the morning of the event, not the day before as previously documented. 8 years ago

Byron Crook ok thank you 8 years ago
