Met Con Blue is honored to announce their support of the Soldier On Fund. On Saturday June 2, while thousands of the country's toughest come together to conquer the most insane five-kilometre mountain adventure race on the planet, they will be joined by some of our countries bravest.

Met Con Blue has a heat running at noon dedicated to the Soldier On Program. Fifty per cent of the Heroes Race registration will be donated to the Soldier On Fund. This is Met Con Blue's way of giving back to those who gave so much for our country, our freedom.

"The members of Soldier On appreciate the support and generosity of Met Con Blue. Donations such as theirs help us to continue to provide additional resources and opportunities for ill and injured military members to adopt an active and healthy lifestyle through participation in physical, recreational and sporting activities," said Major Jay Feyko, Senior Officer with Soldier On.

Met Con Blue will take you up, across and down the hills of Ontario's largest mountain resort. Running, walking and crawling through five kilometers of grueling terrain, with 13 hardcore obstacles standing in the way of the finish. Obstacles like Hamburger Hill, Cargo Kong, and Cold Plunge. Obstacles that have been designed to make your victory feel that much sweeter when you cross the finish!

On Saturday, June 2nd, come join event emcee Trish Stratus, Bluefoot and thousands of other participants all set to conquer the most insane 5km mountain adventure race on the planet. Get ready to experience the pain before you enjoy the party! Supporting events include a vendor area, beer gardens, live bands and after parties.
