Remembering TYRONE MAGBITANG
27-year-old police constable Ty Magbitang was co-lead of Running Waters, an ambassador for Fight to End Cancer, and a fixture on Whitby's running trails. Killed in a collision en route to police college, Magbitang believed "heroes make heroes," and paid it forward in every aspect of your his life. A soulful look at the man and his legacy and where running goes next to honour the life of Ty.

In honour of Sergio Ráez Villanueva completing IRONMAN Canada-Ottawa this past weekend, check out our full video of his inspiring 2026 Quebec Mega Trail (QMT) and the Athletics Canada National Trail Championships.

Setting out to secure a spot on Team Canada, Sergio faced grueling heat, technical trails, and severe exhaustion at the QMT 80km race this July. In those moments, Sergio chose pure joy and resilience over defeat, powering through 80 kilometers of pain with an infectious smile and a true Canadian spirit, because in his own words: "It doesn’t matter where you are from, it matters where you are."

🚨🎙 New Podcast Drop!!!
Fresh out of high school in Port Colborne, Adam is gearing up for LO550—an absolutely mind-blowing 550-mile journey entirely around Lake Ontario! Why? To raise funds for Canadian Tire Jumpstart and help kids smash through financial barriers to get into sports. 🙌

Channeling the spirit of Canadian running icons like Terry Fox, Adam is about to tackle an average of a marathon a day for 21 straight days starting this August.
In their latest episode of the Athletics Ontario Running Podcast, they sit down with this phenomenal young athlete to get the inside scoop on:
🧠 The intense physical and mental prep behind a multi-week mega-trek.
👟 How a Grade 8 "Couch to 5K" program with his dad sparked this entire journey.
💪 How YOU can get involved and sponsor individual miles to back his mission.

Adam is living proof that you are never too young to chase an "impossible" goal and spark massive change in your community. You do not want to miss this inspiring conversation!
