Mississauga 5k and Half-Marathon 2016 Race Report
The weekend of April 30/May 1, I ran two events during the Mississauga Marathon weekend: The Novo Nordisk® “Hazel” 5km and Half Marathon. Doing both races earned me the distinction of calling myself a “Race Weekend Warrior.” I’ve been talking about this half-marathon as the target goal for a long time. I talked about my goals in this post. EXPO I didn’t expect much from the expo, but I was pleasantly surprised.
