Another record turnout for Barrie Waterfront Run
Participants at the Barrie Waterfront Run in Barrie, Ont., on Sun., June 1, 2025. The annual Barrie Waterfront Run once again saw a record turnout Sunday morning and raised thousands of dollars for local charities. According to MultiSport Canada, there were nearly 2,700 participants in the run's 13th edition, up from last year's 2,200, and representing a 20 per cent growth each year since the pandemic. Participants once again had the choice of running a 5K, 10K or half-marathon. There was also a 'Kids Run' and a 5K 'Stroller Run.' 'The day started out around 6 degrees and very low wind, which set the stage for near-perfect running conditions,' said Carolynne Simons, communications director for MultiSport Canada. 'The wind picked up on the course as the race was in progress, but it was not enough to stop anyone from having a great time and celebrating their finish with us and their families.' Organizers say the event raised more than $15,000 for local charities such as the Busby Centre, Candlelighters Simcoe, Seasons Centre for Grieving Children and COPE Service Dogs. MultiSport Canada will host their annual Barrie Triathlon on August 9 and 10 at Centennial Park.
