Looking for a top five finish!


Our son Alex has always been very physically active and has been involved in sports and competition of some kind since he was a little kid. Last year around this time, he entered a race of sorts with a buddy of his, Matt.

It's called CityChase, and it's really taking off here in Canada. It's now held in 5 major cities, Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Ottawa, and Toronto.

You have to enter and run the race as a two person team. And there is a limit of 300 teams in each CityChase race. Alex and Matt entered as a team for the first time in last year's race...and they finished 7th, out of 300!

- The Ascot Festival Of Food And Wine
When most people think of Ascot, they think of the glamour and excitement of horse racing. There's no denying this is a huge draw: every year hundreds of thousands of racing fans make their way to Ascot's race days. For many, though, racing isn't...
