2018 BMO Downtown Dash

2018 BMO Downtown Dash - 5km

Registration administered by Raydent Systems on behalf of Corner Brook Running Club

The 2018 BMO Financial Group Downtown Dash will take place the evening of Thursday, July 12, 2018.

The Downtown Dash is a 5 kilometre run in the Downtown area of Corner Brook for runners of all ages and abilities, so whether this is your first 5 K or you’ve lost count of how many 5 Ks you have run, come out and take part in this ever popular event. There is also a 0.5 km run for the young kids and a 2.5 km run for older ones.

Because of construction work on Park Street and two-way traffic on part of West Street we will not be able to run our usual course around Park Street and West Street.

- Race starts at the BMO parking lot on Main Street and heads towards Riverside Drive.

- Run Riverside Drive and turn left at the second road entrance to Port Corp Building (Pollett Building).

- Run to the far end of Port Corp building, circling the building clockwise and return to Riverside Drive.

- At Riverside Drive turn left and continue approximately 485m to the turnaround point.

- Continue back along Riverside Drive to the Start/Finish area at the BMO parking lot on Main Street.

STROLLERS, ROLLER BLADES, ETC., ARE NOT PERMITTED

This is a running only event. For safety reasons you cannot run with a stroller or anything similar. Rollerblades, etc., are also not permitted.

RUNNING ONLY (and a wee bit of walking if necessary)

REGISTRATION LIMIT

To avoid course congestion, there is a limit of 250 participants.

Corporate Challenge

A corporate team must have a minimum of 3 members but there is no maximum number.  A team may be made up of employees and members of their immediate families, but at least 50% of the team must be employees. When registering for the BMO Downtown Dash each member will indicate his/her Corporate team. Each team member will pay the standard individual race fee for registration. Points are given for both participation and performance.
Points are awarded in reverse finish order and then added up for all team members. Lets just say there are 125 finishers. Team A has five runners that finish 10th, 15th, 25th 30th and 50. The total points would be 116 + 111 + 101 + 96 + 76 = 500. Team B has ten runners who finish 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110. Total points would be 106 + 96 + 86 + 76 + 66 + 56+ 46+36+26+16 = 610. Team B wins. So, the more members the better, and if you have a couple of speedsters you may get an edge. But the final point tally tells all! The winning teams will be awarded the coveted BMO Corporate Challenge Plaque for display in their place of business. They'll need to challenge again next year to keep it!
