R²FAR

In-Person R²FAR Ride/Run
2025-06-21 | Alberta
Mark your calendars for June 21, 2025.
Our in-person event will start off at 8am with a pancake breakfast at the Maranatha Christian Reformed Church in Lethbridge. After breakfast participants will complete the Km’s they signed up for by either running or riding the routes we will have set up on the beautiful bike paths that wind through the west side of Lethbridge. There is a 1.2 km loop that you can take on as many laps as you’d like, or you can join us for the 30km distance (or any portion of it if you think the 30km’s might be too much for you). It’s a great opportunity to connect, challenge yourself, and celebrate together. The day will end with a BBQ celebration at the Elks Compound—a perfect way to wrap up an incredible event. Don’t miss this chance to be part of the RFAR community in person!
