In Pictures: The 2013 Revelstoke Credit Union Grizzly Bear Run
By David F. Rooney
Participants in the 2013 Revelstoke Credit Union Grizzly Bear Run rocketed off the starting line on their five- and 12-kilometre runs on Sunday morning, September 24.
This is a popular community run, but it also attracts runners from across the region. The race results won’t be available until Tuesday. In the meantime, while we wait for those here’s a series of photos from the 9 am start:
