On Friday night, 9 teams set out to beat the rush in an all-out race across Vancouver. The inaugural RUSH HOUR RELAY.
HUGE shoutout to our sponsors who made this event possible.
Turns out, putting on a race is not cheap. Through their support we were able to make this event completely free to enter, instead asking teams for a donation. Together, we raised $455 for local BC charities working to make sports more accessible and at the end of the day, that’s what it’s all about!
Thank you to:
@on for the fastest shoes out there (necessary to outrun traffic)
@nataliembury and @ahh.noke for the supporting my crazy ideas
@feelgood.everyday and @arnie_guieb for the beautiful space
@naakbars for the energy to get up the hills
@_santotaco for ultimate post race nutrition
@humblebeemead for the afterparty bevs
@sipsapsucker for the non-alc refreshments
Another shoutout to @bwyntris and @albert_kragl for chasing down runners all evening to capture the chaos.
Let’s do this again sometime?
