JOE Cares

Be part of Team Diabetes! Team Diabetes is proud to be taking part in the Edmonton Marathon for the first time ever! The Edmonton Marathon is designed to showcase the city’s scenic river valley and surrounding neighborhoods. The route is greatly supported and participants will feel the excitement and enthusiasm of the volunteers and spectators throughout the course. The marathon begins and ends at City Hall located in the heart of downtown Edmonton and the course traces a route that features the many faces of this friendly city including Hawrelak Park, MacKinnon Ravine, downtown Edmonton and some great views of the river valley both sides of the river. For the half marathon, participants will head through downtown into the river valley and split from the marathon course at MacKinnon Ravine, dart along side the North Saskatchewan River, up into west-end neighborhoods before turning back to the Edmonton City Hall. Sign up for the race or donate to the cause! Everyone who participates with Team Diabetes and completes the fundraising goal of $500 by the deadline will be entered to win a trip to the 2010 Honolulu Marathon! Prize package will include: return airfare, 4 nights accommodation, inclusion in the Team Diabetes on-site Team Diabetes events (including Welcome Reception, Pre-race Dinner and Victory Dinner) and registration in the Full Marathon or 10K race
