Series dates for 2011 are below.

For 2010, the dates of the 8 series meets started on May 1st and went until August 21st. This provided an almost every-other-week like schedule, however the first couple of meets in May proved to be chilly outside as we had a late start to the usual Spring warmth. As weather can be tricky during the shoulder seasons, I decided to move to a later start, have a later finish to the series, a more compact month of May and a 4 week break of no meets during July/August.

One exciting thing to note about the series this year is the inclusion of 1 meet to be held at the University of Victoria’s Centennial Stadium and the inclusion of that meet in the Pacific Canada Track Series. Runners of all abilities are included in the Pacific Canada Series.

Here are the 2011 dates:

Saturday May 14th – 800/mile (open and elite M&F) 800-kids 9 – 14.
