Run your Laker ragged

The Nipissing Lakers Cross-Country Running team wants you to run them ragged for a great cause this Thursday, October 10 from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.The Run Your Laker Ragged event will feature a male and female cross-country athlete each running on a treadmill in the Robert J. Surtees Student Athletics Centre, streamed live to a television display in the Student Centre hallway. Students and other passersby can donate cash to increase the speed ($0.75) or elevation ($2.00) in a bid to push these elite athletes to their physical limits before the 20min time limit is reached. Every 20min, a new pair of Lakers athletes will step up to the treadmill challenge!
All funds raised in the Run Your Laker Ragged Challenge will fund the Our Hospital Run, which the team is participating in on Sunday October 20. Last week, the Lakers Cross-Country team raised nearly $500 in a bake sale in support of the CIBC Run for the Cure and the North Bay Regional Health Centre Our Hospital Run.
