The Burns Bog Conservation Society is combining two of its popular annual events by moving the Jog for the Bog to the same day as International Bog Day celebrations.

The society is encouraging people to come for the run and stay for the fun so they can enjoy both events.

The Jog for the Bog is a trail race that's part of the Vancouver Sun Run Series. It will be chip timed and contested through the Delta Nature Reserve.

The run starts at 9 a.m. (registration opens at 8 a.m.) and will be followed by a complimentary breakfast for runners at 10 a.m.

The breakfast, served by North Delta Lions Club members, will feature Nature's Path pancakes, Cobs Bread pastries, fresh fruit and Island Way sorbet courtesy of Willowfields Enterprises.

Jog for the Bog is for all ages and abilities. Money raised will support the Burns Bog Conservation Society's education programs, maintenance of the Delta Nature Reserve boardwalks and outreach campaign.
