Every Wednesday evening, a group of teenagers from P.E.I.’s Lennox Island laces up their shoes, and heads out for a run.
They’re training for Michael Thomas Race Day on June 4, when they’ll run a 5k.
“I haven’t done anything as major as this,” said Logen Lewis, one of the teens in the group.
The running group is organized by the Mi’kmaq Confederacy of P.E.I. There’s also a group training in the Mi’kmaq community in Scotchfort.
