It is our pleasure to announce to you a significant change in a significant event.  The Timothy Trek is now the Lacombe Half Marathon!  Check out the new website at www.runlacombe.com .

We hope to have the same casual yet competitive environment for you, but now along with the 2.5k, 5k, and 10k runs you will have the opportunity to challenge yourself by running a half marathon.  The nature of the event will be the same - we just have a different time and a different location.

The Timothy Trek was all about raising money and awareness for excellent youth work in central Alberta through Youth Unlimited/YFC and Gull Lake Centre.  This change is well in keeping with the nature of these two organizations as they strive to stay on the cutting edge of work with students.  It is always our goal to stay relevant to ever-changing youth culture and so, it is also our desire to stay relevant with our race so we can better support these two organizations.  We want to make effective use of your money in our communities, so we have also taken on the new Lacombe Athletic Park as a third charity that is already having an impact with students.

So past trekkers and new trekkers alike, we would like to invite you to join us for the first annual Lacombe Half Marathon that will be held during Lacombe Days on Sunday July 17 in conjunction with the Lacombe Days Church service.  We are sure it will be an amazing time!  Stay tuned for more details.
