Follow #TeamAwesome2018 as you train for #RunOttawa2018

Training on your own can be a challenge, especially when you’ve had a hard run or need some advice. That’s why Team Awesome is here to help you out!

This year we have 40 amazing social media ambassadors from across Canada and the United States who will be sharing their training stories and tips, taking part in community and digital events, and, of course, lining up on our start line in 2018.

“Team Awesome is about sharing our running experiences as we train for race weekend,” explains team captain Leanne Richardson. “Encouraging, supporting, and cheering one another on so we can all get to the finish line!”

Now, no matter where you are training, you don’t have to train alone! Check out the Team Awesome page to learn about each member and follow them on social media.

And keep an eye out for #TeamAwesome2018 on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to stay connected to our amazing team as we all get ready for #RunOttawa2018.

Here’s a preview of the races our Team Awesome members are training for in 2018.
