BEST Run for Clean Air
10km Run/5km Walk

Sunday, September 11, 2005
Central Valley Greenway at Burnaby Lake

$30 Early Bird by Aug. 31 . $35 by 6 PM Sept. 10 . $40 day of the run

race time: 10 AM sharp
race day registration:  8:30 to 9:30 a.m.

Join us for a 10km run or 5km walk on a beautiful, flat, green, forested
trail suitable for the whole family as well as the dedicated runner. When
you do, you'll be supporting clean air.

Sign up for the BEST Run for Clean Air today. You'll breathe easier knowing
you are raising awareness about clean-air travel solutions. Participants
will enjoy plenty of great prizes, food, and gifts - plus, you'll just have
lots of fun doing it!

We take for granted the air we breathe. But for thousands of British
Columbians with breathing problems, air quality is a matter of life and
death. Seventy-five per cent of air pollution in the region comes from motor
vehicles.

At Better Environmentally Sound Transportation (BEST) we want people to use
the great routes that  are coming our way, like the Central Valley Greenway.
When it's finished, cyclists, runners, and walkers will enjoy the Greenway,
which will stretch from Science World past Burnaby Lake to the New
Westminster Quay. That's 22 kilometers of trail!

Run. Walk. Stroll.
Just give it your BEST!
