This family classic, put on by Runners of Compassion, raises funds to provide shoes to students who cannot otherwise afford them. It promotes an active lifestyle and ensures underprivileged or disenfranchised youth can participate in sports programs. To date, they have distributed more than $10,000 a year in the community.

Monday鈥檚 multiple events ensure there is an activity for every member of the family.

Registration is $20 for adults, $10 for children and $40 for a family. Registration is from 5 to 5:45 p.m. at McKinnon Gym at the University of Victoria. The event runs 6 to 8:30 p.m. Monday from the gym and around Ring Road.

People can register online or at the event. For more information, go to raceonline.ca/events.
