Ottawa's second Emergency Service event this weekend
Posted on Oct 20, 2011 by Shad Qadri
On Oct. 22, 2011, families and friends will be running/walking in a Half Marathon, 10k or 3 K Family Fun Walk/Run as part of the City's second annual 9 Run Run.
Last year 9 RUN RUN raised an outstanding $16,911.10 for youth substance abuse. This year 9 RUN RUN, inspired by D.I.F.D. (Do it for Daron), is honoured to support The Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre "Youth Mental Health Awareness Study & Early Intervention Research Project" which will be conducted throughout schools across our region.

9 Run Run' coming to Stittsville
by: Tiffany Williams-Lepack, Aug. 5, 2010
EMC Sports - Running can become a love-hate relationship for some people.
For Ottawa Police chief Vern White, he wanted to prove to himself that he could run a marathon. Last year he completed his goal running in the 28th Wineglass Marathon in Corning, New York finishing with a time of 4:20:10.
White explains that he used to hate running like some people hate eating their vegetables. He feels the training was especially tough. Today he doesn't know if he loves running but he can see and feel a difference.
"I spent the first 50 years of my life saying there was no way I could ever run a marathon. I don't know if 'enjoy' is the right word but I enjoyed the experience and thrill and emotions afterwards. The training might have been the hardest thing I've ever done in my life, I have to be honest," said White.
This year his goal is to run 12 half marathons in the span of 12 months. Thus far he has run five.
He was discussing his goal in a casual conversation with Stittsville councillor Shad Qadri and that there was a need for a run like this. Qadri then handed the ball over to the person who he thought would do a good job organizing the event, Brenda Tirell. The wheels were put in motion and the inaugural 9-Run-Run was created.
The Ottawa Emergency Services run will take place on Oct. 23 and will feature a half marathon and a 3 km family fun run/walk. Qadri thinks she has done an excellent job and he is happy to work with the emergency services in the run. "It's a good venture for our community, we are a young community and we want to be active. This 9 Run Run, I think will do that and will bring the three emergency services together and say, 'Come on community come on and join us," said Qadri.
Tirrell, race director, is a firefighter in Stittsville and wanted to have all of the emergency services involved.
"I'm really excited about it and the support from business and running community has been tremendous," said Tirrell.
With all three emergency services involved, White feels there will be a bit of a friendly competition going on as well.
"I think we can beat them in the run, if we can't, then nothing else our relationship with both services are very strong but a very competitive relationship," said White. "I thought it would be fun to play around a little bit and at the same time hopefully teach them a lesson in running"
The event will support the building of the Meadow Creek Rehabilitation Centre in Carp, part of the Support Treatment Education Prevention (STEP) program. The program helps address the need for residential substance abuse treatment, education and prevention for young people between the ages of 13 and 17.
Tirrell believes it is an event for the whole community and even those who are not runners can come out.
"With the family fun run-want to encourage families and kids to come out and run 3 km
There is something for everyone, if you don't want to walk or run people can come out and volunteer or cheer," said Tirrell
Tirrell thinks the event promotes a healthy lifestyle and a great way for the three services to work together. She also feels it is great that for most part the participants will be running on country roads. A sentiment echoed by White.
"I think it gives us an opportunity to celebrate a different part of the city and a part a lot of visitors don't see and even a lot of Ottawa citizens who may live in the east end may not see. They will see the Trans Canada trail, which is spectacular they will get to run most on trail but they will also get to see what Stittsville has to offer the community," said White. "I think it will be for a lot of people a bit of an eye opener, people will see that Stittsville is a lot bigger than it used to be, it's gone from being a little bit of a sleepy hollow town to a bustling community."
He hopes everyone will come out and cheer on the runners because everyone needs someone yelling go so they don't give up midway through.
The race will start at the Goulbourn Recreation Centre on Shea Road, then they will turn on Stittsville Main Street until they hit Flewellyn Road to Lucas Lane and follows the Trans Canada Trail back to the GRC.

9 RUN RUN coming up in Stittsville /First annual Emergency Services Run
article from Your Ottawa Region, John Curry
Stittsville, Ontario - Eight hundred half marathoners and another 300 in the 3K Family Fun walk/run. That’s going to be a lot of feet hitting the ground in the first annual 9 RUN RUN in Stittsville on Saturday, Oct. 23.
But this is the goal for organizers of this inaugural event being held to raise funds for Project s.t.e.p., a support, treatment, education and prevention initiative to combat substance abuse among young people.
Race director Brenda Tirrell told members of the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville at their Sept. 28 meeting that registration for the half marathon event is now just under the halfway mark for the planned 800 runners. Runners from as far away as Fort McMurray and Quebec City have registered. She expressed confidence that 800 runners will register for the half marathon.
As far as the 3K Family Fun walk/run is concerned, about 150 participants are now registered and hopes are still high that the projected 300 participant goal will be met.
There is to be a major push coming through A Channel, flyers and other means to reach this registration total.
Both the half marathon and the 3K Family Fun walk/run will start from Sacred Heart High School on Abbott Street in Stittsville.
The half marathon will follow a route involving Abbott Street, Stittsville Main Street, Flewellyn Road, Munster Road, Fernbank Road, Jinkinson Road and the Trans Canada Trail back to Stittsville. Including the Trans Canada Trail in the route makes this a unique experience for half marathon runners.
The idea of holding this first-ever 9 RUN RUN emergency services run came about as a result of Ottawa Police Services chief Vern White having the goal of running in a number of marathons this year. In addition, chief White is heavily involved in promoting Project s.t.e.p. and healthy living in general.
This all led to the idea of holding a local half marathon and after various dates were investigated, including some as early as July, the Saturday, Oct. 23 date was decided upon.
The name 9 RUN RUN came about thanks to Ben von Jagow of Stittsville whose mother, Karen, is a running partner of Brenda Tirrell. It was being called the Ottawa Emergency Services Run in its early planning stages until Ben made the suggestion that it be called the 9 RUN RUN, a takeoff on the 9-1-1 phone number that is called to access emergency services.
“We thought that was very clever of Ben,” Brenda said in her presentation to the Rotary Club and the 9 RUN RUN name was adopted.
The three emergency services, fire, police and paramedic service, are all supporting the event and will be involved. There have also been corporate sponsors who have come on board such as Bradley’s Insurance, BMO Nesbitt Burns, Coldwell Banker First Ottawa Realty, McDonald’s (Stittsville and Kanata), Thomas Cavanagh Construction Limited, Kunstadt Sports, Creo Marketing, the Running Room, Bob FM 93.9, the A Channel, Zoom Photo, the city of Ottawa and Popeye’s Supplements.
The Stittsville Rotarians are also going to be involved in some way. A Shelter Box, the disaster relief program which the Rotary Club in Stittsville has been supporting, may be set up along the route. Rotary Club members may also be staffing one of the water stations along the route.
But there is going to be more at this 9 RUN RUN event than just running and walking. There will be the Chief’s Chili Cookoff, a friendly event that will test rival recipes. Participants will be able to enjoy the results of this cookoff as part of their free post-race lunch.
The Ottawa Paramedic Service’s trauma rescue unit will be on site for viewing, as will Ottawa Fire Service vehicles and the Ottawa Police Service’s canine unit.
The half marathon run will be starting at 9 a.m. while the Family Fun walk/run will get underway at 9:30 a.m.
Registration is now open at www.runrun.ca or at www.events.runningroom.com. Registration fees for the half marathon are $70 per person while the registration fee for the 3K Family Fun walk/run is $20 per participant.
The registration includes not only the event itself but a free post race BBQ with the chili, a free long sleeve technical t-shirt for the half marathon or a free cotton t-shirt for the Family Fun run/walk, a free iRun magazine subscription and free medals. Everyone will also be eligible for a door prize draw.

9 Run Run Event Raises $16,911
By Tiffany Williams-Lepack, EMC News - posted Nov. 18, 2010
It was a five alarm success as runners and walkers raised $16,911 for charity in the first ever 9 Run Run on Oct. 23.
The emergency services half marathon and 3 km family walk/run was in support of the building of the Meadow Creek Rehabilitation Centre in Carp as part of Project s.t.e.p. (support, treatment, education and prevention) and the official cheque presentation was made on Nov. 9 at Ottawa City Hall.
The race came about as part of Ottawa Police chief Vern White's goal to run a half marathon each month and through the hard work and dedication of more than 140 volunteers the race went off with only a few small glitches.
White was amazed at the success of the event as it was bigger than he thought it would be.
"I thought it was going to be a great event and we would get a couple hundred people, raise a little bit of money and raise a fair amount of awareness," said White. "Instead we had almost 900 people, raised a fair amount of money and I think raised a lot of awareness, particularly in that area of the community. People downtown hear about and have these discussions a lot but in the west end it's not on everyone's lips so I thought it was great."
This was his tenth half-marathon of 2010 and White admits that with a time of two hours and ten minutes it was slow. But he enjoyed chatting with the many volunteers, thanking as many of them as he could.
Race director Brenda Tirrell thought it was a fantastic event due to all the volunteers and support from the community. She was especially excited with the many signs that local businesses put up welcoming runners and walkers to the community.
Stittsville councillor Shad Qadri gives the credit to Tirrell and her team of organizers and is looking forward to next year. He hopes he is well enough to participate. He was pleased with the turnout with participants from right across the city and the surrounding areas as well as the large emergency service presence.
"What a way to showcase our emergency services to the community to say look we don't just keep you protected but we make you a community and participate in the community," said Qadri.
Tirrell says they learned a few things and are looking to add a 5 or 10 km run for next year and dealing with a lunch issue.
"We learned to serve the food a bit earlier," she said with a laugh.
"People are always hungry."
Everyone was impressed with the police, fire and paramedic presence and she felt it was important for them to be there.
"There was a lot of police brass and tremendous coverage by paramedics. They were at every water station which was pretty much unheard of," said Tirrell. "It was their event, they understood that they needed to showcase what they had. It was great to have the fire presence there too with their truck."
Other suggestions for next year include working more with OC Transpo and Ottawa Police to ensure that road closures are a minimum.
The race winner, Rick Hillier of Ottawa, also ran into a small problem at the finish line.
"He ran past because, here's a little glitch or learning curve that we had, with about 20 metres left we didn't direct them in the right way and he went past the finish and turned around and came back and still finished first," said Tirrell.
"He took it all in stride and was laughing about it, a great sport about it. The first, second and third were so close they all went by it and came back and all thought it was quite funny, they took it all in stride."
She was also impressed that for such a small event they had Dr. John Hooper as their medical director who stayed on site all day in case he was needed.
Overall everyone was quite surprised with the amount of money the race raised and how smoothly it ran.
"We had initially hoped to raise about $10,000 so next year it's only going to get bigger and the cheque is going to get bigger. Hopefully our expenses will be a little bit less. The first year there is a learning curve," said Tirrell.
"We wanted to make sure we did it right the first year and hope that people will come back next year."
Planning is already under way for next year's race on Oct.22, 2011 at Sacred Heart Catholic High School.
