Ninety years ago, university students marched en masse and their protest led to the creation of the University of B.C. campus where it's located today in Point Grey. On Saturday, Oct. 27, UBC commemorates this history by hosting an 8-km run and relay known as the Great Trek. Suited for elite and recreational runners, the Great Trek begins at 10 a.m. near a memorial site on campus at the intersection of Agricultural Rd. and the Main Mall. Teams can have one racer or up to four relay runners. For more information, visit greattrek.ca.
