In 2016, Canada’s Ed Whitlock ran
a marathon in under four hours,
crushing the 85+ world record by more than
30 minutes. Age-graded, many of his world
records could be considered among the
greatest running performances of all-time.
Tim Huebsch goes for a run with Whitlock
at his favourite running spot, a cemetery in
Milton, Ont., to find out what motivates one
of the most talented and intriguing runners
alive.

There’s something about
the Cabot Trail Relay
A group of 17 women travelled to
Nova Scotia to run the Cabot Trail
Relay. The 24-hour event is broken up into
17 legs, ranging from 12–20k. The course
covers the entire 276k of Nova Scotia’s
mountainous and breathtaking Cabot Trail.
Though training for this specific race only
began several months before, all of the steps
that led to it were years, and even decades, in
the making.
