The ninth annual Strachan Hartley Legacy Run will be held this Sunday starting at 9 a.m. at Handsworth secondary.
A challenging 10-kilometre run, a stroller and dog-friendly 5-km run, a Kids Fun Race and a post- race social will all be part of the event held in honour of Hartley, a North Vancouver doctor and football player who died of cancer in 2007 at the age of 30.
Proceeds from this year's race will go towards Streetfront and Take a Hike, a pair of East Vancouver-based programs that incorporate sport into the daily academic curriculum for at-risk youth. The Legacy Run has raised more than $200,000 for programs for at-risk youth through the first eight races.
