Mundy Pond Route For Provincial 5K

Due to continued construction on Water Street organizers have decided to hold the September 13 Provincial 5K on the Mundy Pond route again this year.

Nautilus President Jamie Coady said "We are disappointed that the continuing tear-up of the downtown area prohibits us from returning to our popular Water Street course. We will use Mundy Pond again as this year and hope to be back downtown in 2010".

More information including registration details and course description HERE.
