This past weekend the Shawnigan Cross-Country group participated in another excellent event called the Mt. Tzouhalem GutBuster. This grueling, 13 km race includes a 600 m elevation difference on some of the most challenging terrain.
In many cases, our runners hadn't participated in an event like this before. Despite this, however, Shawnigan had spectacular results, managing to medal in both the boys and girls short and long courses.
We acknowledge with respect the Coast Salish Peoples on whose traditional lands and waterways we live, learn and play. We are grateful for the opportunity to share in this beautiful region, and we aspire to healthy and respectful relationships with those who have lived on and cared for these lands for millennia.
