Our annual awards night/gala was back in person last weekend for the first time since 2020! 🎉

New for this year, our Special Achievement Award was renamed to honour long time club member Bob Nagle, who passed away in 2019 (Bob was also a Special Achievement Award winner in 2000)

Congratulations all of the 2022 winners & Longboat hall of fame inductees! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Thank you to Jay for once again allowing us to use this great space!

A little about us…

✨ We were founded in 1980, which means we have been on the roads longer than most other running clubs in Toronto!

✨ We aren’t just about running: there is also an important social aspect to the club! Some of our annual events include: New Members’ brunch + speaker, club cross country, awards gala (dinner/dance) & more

✨ We are the proud hosts of the Longboat Toronto Island Run 10K/5K & the Sunset Shuffle 6K and our members play an integral role in making these events happen

✨ Our namesake is the great First Nations & Canadian runner Tom Longboat and we do our best to ensure Longboat remains a living part of Canada’s running scene

Want to train with us? Running with a group is a great way to hold yourself accountable, stay motivated (especially throughout the cold, dark winter months!) & have fun, as we work together to achieve our own individual goals

RP @sue__stone: Canadian Masters XC Championships in Ottawa

Masters Runners might be old (30+) but they are NOT slow! It was an honour to run with such talented athletes! ☝️Excited to be 1st in my age group and honoured to be on the M60-69 winning team (👍Longboat)
I was also the only female on the winning Provincial team for the GAAT award. Note: I was smiling on the hill, NOT grimacing 😁😮‍💨 Thanks 🙏to @ottawalionstfc ; @runottawa ; @canadianmastersathletics35 and all the amazing volunteers for putting on such a well organized event!! ❤️ #xcnationals

RP @eleybri26: 🎉 5️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ 🎉 Today I ran my 500th race. It’s taken 45+ years to hit that mark, but it’s fitting that since my earliest races were high school cross country, #500 was also XC… and extra special, it was a classic cold, hilly and muddy Canadian Championships.
After a tough month nursing a hamstring strain, I didn’t have my best stuff and had to settle for 6th in my AG, but was really happy just to run this one, and my result did lead our club (Longboat) to team gold🥇… National Champions in the M60 AG.
I don’t know how many more races these legs have in them, but I’ll keep toeing start lines as long as I can… 🏃🙂
