A Personal Best, almost!

Inspired by your generosity, Mike Hurley, TFL’s Executive Director and sole runner for the Acorns this year, successfully completed the TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon 5K on October 15th, just seconds shy of his best-ever time. Your generosity raised over $2,800 in support of tree planting in the Toronto waterfront area near the race route including Tommy Thompson Park.

These plantings are a part of the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority’s efforts to combat the impacts of climate change on this section of Lake Ontario shoreline and also help the Canada Running Series, the race organizers, to offset some of the carbon emissions the race produces. Thank you to everyone who donated. We are so grateful for our partnership and your support. We couldn't have crossed the finish line without your contributions!
