Redefining my Goals – Reflections on the 2020 Olympic Postponement

Just over three months ago we were all celebrating the turn of the year. Everyone had goals for 2020 – benchmarks we hoped to achieve, opportunities we felt we’d get, trips and time with friends we were looking forward to.

Part of this is safety, we want you to hear us when we call out oncoming traffic, but the real reason is that we're a pretty social group; how can we have a conversation when there's music in your ears? Well, with group runs of all kinds temporarily on lockd...

Who is Kat Drew? Get to know our VRC Elite Ambassador

We’ve known Kat Drew for a few years now, thanks to her being a founding member of Fraser Street Run Club, and longtime supporter of Vancouver Running Co., so we were stoked to officially welcome her into the VRC fold at the beginning of this year. From humble beginnings as a casual half marathon runner, Kat set the trail world on fire in 2019 by winning the prestigious Chuckanut 50k, bagging ...
