Runners from across the province will gather in Morden this weekend for the Morden International Triathlon.

Grant Gelinas Brown is with race organizers Cops for Cancer.

He says for the most part, everything is in place.

Gelinas Brown says the only thing they could use more of is volunteers.

He says right now there are about eighty volunteers and a number of local businesses are helping support the runners any way they can.

This is the first year Cops for Cancer in Winnipeg has organized the event.

Gelinas Brown says the biggest challenge was trying to coordinate everything from the city.

He says all proceeds from the race will benefit Cancer Care Manitoba.
