Emilie’s Run – April 25, 2020

Emilie’s Run
When: April 25, 9:30 a.m. (1K) and
10 a.m. (5K)
Where: Canada Agriculture and Food
Museum
What: Emilie’s Run is a women’s run
honouring the memory of Émilie Mondor,
the first Canadian woman to run sub-
15:00 in the 5K and a member of Canada’s
Olympic team at the 2004 Olympics.
Tragically, while living in Ottawa in the
fall of 2006, Émilie was involved in a car
accident that claimed her life. The next
year the race in her honour was created
and since then it has been a major draw
for Canada and the world’s elite female
runners. While attracting an outstanding
elite field, the run is open to all women
and girls wishing to participate. The day
also features a 1K Kids Run for girls and
boys ages 6-12.
