Canada’s Natasha Wodak and Dayna Pidhoresky, both from Vancouver, will race the Comox Valley RV Half Marathon on Sunday, March 24. Additionally, local runner, Roslyn Smith will seek the women’s 75-79 age-group world record.

The Comox Valley RV Half Marathon is on projection to have its all-time record number of finishers broken by a large margin. The current record was 601 finishers from the 2010 edition of the race. Organizers Rob Kelly and Wayne Crowe expect 750 to 800 runners and a few walkers.

The 38th annual event will likely see the women’s course record eclipsed by both athletes.

Also, Comox Valley Road Runners athlete Roslyn Smith seeks to add to her list of national and world records with a world best time of sub-1:46:08. The national record is 1:47:08.
