Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the 93rd Tely 10 Mile Road Race, scheduled for November 1, 2020, is cancelled. The next edition of the race will be on July 25, 2021, or when the public health guidelines allow us to hold an in-person race.
To keep the spirit of the event alive, we are introducing our 1st Virtual Tely 10: #StayHomeTely2020.
#StayHomeTely2020 will offer four virtual challenges expanding on the traditional in-person 10-mile event to include shorter and longer distances.
#StayHomeTely2020 challenges include an opportunity for kids to participate, and runners who enjoy longer endurance events.
#StayHomeTely2020 will allow participants to run or walk at their own pace, anytime and anyplace! Participants can choose their start and finish lines, and as there is no designated course, they can be active on a treadmill or a neighbourhood street. As the times and distance covered is based on an honour system, there is no finishing order, and there are no placing awards.
#StayHomeTely2020 challenges will feature:
- Kids Tely-10 Mile (ages 6 to 11) (born in the year 2009 through 2014
- Tely-5 Mile (age 12 and older) (born in the year 2008 and earlier)
- Tely-10 Mile (age 15 and older) (born in the year 2005 and earlier)
- 92-Mile Endurance Tely (age 18 and older) (born in 2002 and earlier)
Further information on #StayHomeTely2020 will be provided over the next days (click here for details on the 1st virtual Tely 10).

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 Tely 10 mile race, initially scheduled for July 26, is postponed to November 1, 2020. Registration information will be available at a later date. The race organizers are committed to the health, safety and well-being of all participants, volunteers and the sporting community.

We know how important the Tely 10 is for so many of our supporters, and we hope to provide them with the opportunity to experience this historic event in 2020. We encourage everyone to continue to stay active in their own bubble and to practice physical distancing while running/walking outdoors.

We continue to monitor the latest development with the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. At this point, our thoughts and prayers are with all affected by the outbreak. We are grateful to the front-line workers in all fields that continue to provide essential service while keeping us safe.
We will delay the decision to cancel or postpone the 2020 Tely 10 mile road race until June 1. The decision will be based on the recommendation of the Department of Health and Community Services at that time (for the latest information visit https://www.gov.nl.ca/covid-19/).
We continue to plan and prepare for the 2020 race, and soon we will release this year’s 12-week training schedule. We encourage those that follow the schedule, and everyone else, to run or walk on their own while respecting all public health physical distancing guidelines.
Stay safe! Stay home!
