2020 Lindsay Milk Run and KL21K Half Marathon
COVID-19 Update: The safety and well-being of our participants, volunteers, staff, families and the community at large is always our top priority. Unfortunately we have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 Lindsay Milk Run/KL21K due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We look forward to you joining us at the start line in 2021!
#MyMilkRun - Where will your route take you?
Following the announcement of the cancellation of the 42nd annual Lindsay Milk Run/KL21K due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we understood and appreciated that many people had been training and preparing for race day and for the opportunity to share their finish line accomplishments.
We wanted to offer a creative solution for participants to stay motivated, active and still provide an opportunity to share their achievements despite the cancellation of the event.
#MyMilkRun has been created as a way for individuals to run or walk the 5K, 10K or half marathon on their own terms, in their own neighbourhood (or even on their treadmill) taking into consideration physical and social distancing guidelines.
Individuals are invited to join in the fun, share their experience and by doing so will automatically be entered for a chance to win a free entry to the 2021 event.
How it works:
Step 1: Choose a route
Participants can choose to run or walk the traditional 5K or 10K Milk Run route or to challenge themselves with the KL21K half marathon route.
Download the 5K Lindsay Milk Run Route Map here
Download the 10K Lindsay Milk Run Route Map here
Download the KL21K Half Marathon Route Map here
Participants may also opt to choose their own 5K, 10K or Half Marathon route in their neighbourhoods.
Step 2: Snap a photo
Participants can take a photo of themselves either pre-run, during or post-race.
Participants will receive a bonus entry if they are wearing a Milk Run T-Shirt.
Step 3: Share the achievement
Participants are then encouraged to share their photo on social media using the hashtag #MyMilkRun. Be sure to tag @cklprc on Twitter or on Facebook at Facebook/cityofkawarthalakesprc
Step 4: Be entered for a chance to win a prize
All participants will automatically be entered into a draw to win a free entry to the 2021 Lindsay Milk Run or KL21K.
