In 2008 and 2009, we've featured various local and visiting Trapline Marathon runners. We do this to inspire locals to take up the challenge and to let people from away know you won't be travelling alone. You'll be graciously hosted in Labrador and taken good care of, in fact you could be the first!

Let's start our series of 2010 features with Peggy Skinner! A hometown girl planning to run her first marathon at the young age of 51. Peggy says, "I have always been an all or nothing kind of girl, and maybe some people would start with a half-marathon, but not me, I'm going for the gusto. Running the Labrador Trapline Marathon will be my Olympic moment. I will be there no matter what. I won't be the fastest, but I will finish, running at my own full tilt."
