If your company, organization, or charity would like to become an Exhibitor in the GoodLife FITNESS Expo, it is a great opportunity to show the thousands of participants what you are about.

Getting ready for Blue Nose 2012, “Myles” has been hard at work making several significant improvements and upgrades to the structural layout of the courses for the Half Marathon and also for the 5k. Minor adjustments will also help improve the participant experience in the 10k. For the Full Marathon, the biggest change will be that the ‘front half’ will be on the Dartmouth side.

RACE WEEKEND EVENTS

Race Weekend is far more than simply participating in one of the five distance events of your choice. "Myles" has carefully prepared a special 3-day series of events designed to provide you, your family, your friends etc. with one great experience after another.
