Welcome to the 2020 Tannenbaum 10k & Beyond!

A BRC Running Series Virtual Event

Official date: Saturday December 5th to Sunday December 13th*
You can run and enter your time on any day in December, 2020**
**Individual and team prizes will be calculated on results entered within this time period.
** For prizing, your results & entries must be accompanied with proof of run. ie, Garmin, Runkeeper, Strava or similar web link.

This is NOT just another Virtual Run, this one is for the great cause of supporting Community Centre 55’s ever so important “SHARE A CHRISTMAS” program. They are in dire need of our help this year with Covid having severely affecting their annual fundraising levels. This run is also for everyone, at any running level, to challenge themselves to do something a little different, and share their stories with us and the running community.
Our goal normally, is to raise $10,000+ in online donations, on top of what can can provide from registration fees, after all expenses are taken care of, we usually are able to contribute $25,000+.  With Virtual races, it’s harder to meet these goals, so please, do what you can, give what you can so that the charity can do what they can to continue to provide for the less fortunate and elderly this holiday season.

Or how about 25k, or maybe your first 100km month, your first 100km week, your first time running more than 3 days a week, your first time running 30 days in a row, or even your first run after many years off…etc. You get the point. You set a goal and reach it in support of yourself, and Community Centre 55’s Share a Christmas program.

Some things don’t change. This is still a fun festive 10k race in support of Community Centre 55’s Share a Christmas program. It’s still Toronto’s FAVE 10k!
