Thousands participate in the Goodlife Fitness Toronto Marathon

Thousands took part in the annual Goodlife Fitness Toronto Marathon today, participating in a variety of runs, including full marathons and half marathons.

Runners and walkers started bright and early this morning at Mel Lastman Square, in the Yonge and Sheppard area, and made their way south on Yonge Street, eventually finishing at Exhibition Place.

 

Great day today at the Goodlife marathon. Got our relay teams out and running. Then went and did the half. (And ran the last leg of a relay team). #runforfun #runhappy #goodlifehalfmarathon #running

And participants of the marathon today are already setting their goals for their next challenge.

 

 

What a great run! I felt like the course flew past (for the most part lol) and was happily surprised to feel no leg pain of any kind. Came up short of my sub-2 hour goal (2:08:41) but I'm looking forward to redeeming myself in September! Congrats to everyone else who ran today! #torontomarathon
