Testimonials

"Our school running club participated in the June 1st school division run and I just wanted to tell you how incredibly well-organized it was. From the no-hassle express ETS bus to and from the site, to being chaperoned from one station to the next, etc., everything was perfect. Using a bunch of young, enthusiastic U of A students was a boon as well. Usually the first time something is organized, you can expect to find a few snags, but I can honestly say, it was perfectly run. Great job! We are looking forward to next year's event."
Sherri Kessels, Teacher

"Thank you for all the organizing you did for the Little Big Run. It was very well organized. We had such a great time doing the warm up and the lead up activities before the run. The 1km path was very well shaded with such beautiful surroundings for the hot day we had. What a great location! The treat at the end of the race hit the spot for the students. Everyone had such a fantastic time and I would like to thank you again for all you did. I hope the Little Big Run will continue to be sponsored by the City of Edmonton next year because we will definitely be going."
Lorraine Hoeber, Teacher

I’m sure that all of this years schools will be bringing more students and we should pickup a few more new schools. Congrats on the Sat/Sunday Little Big Run Events, 1200 runners on Sunday is a great start."
