Runners begin at 8:30 AM from Kiwanis Heydenshore Park in Whitby, Ontario, completing a 5k on the Heydenshore waterfront trail. The course is fast and flat, suitable for those aiming for a quick time, as well as walkers, newer runners, and families seeking a simple local race. Registration provides professional timing by Speed River Timing, complimentary race photos, and a finisher medal.
The Race for Plates supports StockTheSummer.ca, with participants encouraged to bring non-perishable food for local food banks. These donations also contribute to keeping the event accessible, offering a discount for children 12 and under and introducing a new children’s category for boys and girls. Male and female podium finishers will get Sunset Grill gift cards, and sponsor contributions include pancakes, energy gels, kombucha, and sugar-free sports drinks. The race proceeds rain or shine, barring extreme conditions, and free parking is available near the park.
