Around the Bay Roadrace 2015 from Wayne MacPhail on Vimeo.

What was it like to run the Around The Bay road race? The oldest long distance race in North America? Check out this remarkable video from Hamilton runner and journalist Wayne MacPhail.

How tough was it to race with a Go Pro camera strapped to your head? Probably not as hard as running 5k in 70 pounds of firefighter gear. That's what a group of Ontario firefighters pulled off on Sunday. They completed the 5-kilometre run in full bunker gear to raise awareness for the effects of post-traumatic stress disorder among first responders.

The 30K race drew about 9,000 runners while another 2,500 people took part in the 5K race. Vancouver's Dayna Pidhoresky set the pace in the women's 30K with a winning time of 1:50:47. Former course record holder Lioudmila Kortchaguina, from Thornhill, Ont., finished second at 1:53:40.  

For the second year in a row, Paul Kimugul from Toronto finished first in the men's 30K race. With an apt bib number of 1, Kimugul clocked a time of 1:33:48, almost two minutes faster compared to his last year's time.

Alberta's Daniel Kipkoech came in just one minute later, finishing second place at 1:34:33.

For the 5K race, Alex Genest and Genevieve Lalonde, both from Guelph, Ont., were the fastest man and woman. They clocked a finish time of 12:37 and 16:25, respectively.

In a press release issued Sunday, St. Joseph's Healthcare Foundation President and CEO Sera Filice-Armenio said the race had raised "about $450,000 so far with a few donations still to come in over the race weekend." The total was not far off their goal of $475,000.
