Fair to say we kicked off 2026 on the right foot.
Shoutout to @resolutionrun.to for putting this event together and giving runners across Toronto a chance to come together and run a 5K.
Can’t wait to do it again next year!
P.S. Delvin might prefer long distances, but he still had a lot of fun out there.
