The start of the North Coast running season will come in front of the Lester Centre of the Arts on Sunday, as the Rupert Runners host the Prince Rupert Half Marathon, Half Relay and 8 K runs.
The local program has hosted Group runs and fun runs through the fall and winter, but this weekend's major event marks the start of the real running season for those across the northwest and on Haida Gwaii.
