On Saturday, ELM hosted a special community event that included a fun, 5km Urban Attack ‘non-race’ to raise funds for the local Boys and Girls Club and celebrate 10 years of providing fitness adventures in the Comox Valley.
Teams of two with names such as ‘4 kids later’ and ‘Who’s on 5th?’ worked to find a series of checkpoints in the downtown Courtenay area on foot. Along the way, teams had to complete many mystery challenges including some set up at local
sponsoring businesses.
After the event, participants enjoyed a barbecue lunch and a big raffle with prizes from local sponsors.
“Thanks to the sponsors, Fiestaquest for providing the music, Mudsharks for the coffee and the Comox Valley Road Runners for the race equipment,” said Sarah Seads of ELM.
