COVID-19 has affected a number of local events, and the 2020 Torch Run for Special Olympics is no different.
The event, originally scheduled for May, will still carry on in person at St Clair College Thames Campus tomorrow with a limit of 100 participants and on-site COVID screenings, but new this year is a virtual component.
The in-person run features 5 and 10 kilometre timed runs as well as a 1KM kids’ challenge.
Anyone who’d like to take part on their own time has until September 19th to complete their run – virtual runners are asked to get a picture of finishing and post it to the Torch Run Facebook page.
