This is a new event which will serve as fundraiser for the SFU Alumni Association Graduate Entrance Scholarship and thus hopefully help Simon Fraser University in attracting the finest of the world's young researchers. The idea to set up a run here was mainly motivated by Ean Jackson but the legacy of Terry Fox, one of the greatest spiritual values at SFU also served as a great inspiration. The route was proposed by the Hungarian EH Peter Zubcsek and measured by the other Hungarian CFA member Gyula Szabó.

The route goes through 2 conservation areas: Burnaby Mountain Park and Barnet Marine Park (click the links for trivia).

 

Last but not least, all contestants are expected to be loyal to the race date and to have a lot of fun.
