Participants in the walking division start later than the elite athletes at the Vancouver Sun Run, which this year had 57,518 registered participants. On Sunday, the sky was clear, the sun was shining bright as they geared up to take on the 10-kilometre run, walk or ride.

Article content

While the competitive runners wrapped up their route earlier in the day, the participants choosing to walk had a slower start. Some stretched, others relaxed with family and friends and some, like Dani Lloyd, were preparing their babies for the long day.
