Under beaming sun and intense heat, hundreds took part in the annual Hintonburg 1K and 5K runs on July 13.
Temperatures soared to over 30 degrees but felt more like 40 with the humidex. But that didn’t sway runners from participating in the neighbourhood event put on by the Hintonburg Community Association.
It was a record-breaking year for the run which quickly sold out. Organizer Lisa George’s said 450 people registered for the 5K run and another 400 for the kids’ 1K run.
