Trot to the Beach (Mid September)
For some, Trot to the Beach is a competition against other top runners from around the province. For others, it is a test of personal endurance and a goal to finish. The half-marathon run starts in Blenheim's Memorial Park and ends at the beach in Erieau. The course goes through some suburbs of Blenheim, then cross country on gravel roads to Erie Beach. The last ten kilometers of the course runs parallel to the Lake Erie shoreline and finishes on the beach. Proceeds from the annual event go to the development and up-keep of local walking and biking trails. All visitors are welcome!
