Race Director Freddie Evans stated, “The Butterfield Mile provides a great opportunity for young athletes to showcase their talents. Last year, we saw records fall, and I am confident we will see more records broken in 2025. We have seen dynamic performances during the cross-country season, and we are excitedly looking forward to seeing potential record-breaking performances in the Butterfield mile. If you can run a sub-8-minute mile, we encourage you to come out to the trials and give it your best shot!”
A Butterfield spokesperson commented, “Butterfield is again proud to serve as the lead sponsor of the iconic Front Street Mile, one of the highlights of the local racing calendar. This exciting event unites a community of junior, amateur, and elite athletes, together with their supporters, for a friendly evening of competition and celebration. We are delighted that our very own Vern will be running in this year’s new Mascot Race. Vern invites and encourages mascots from other companies, schools, and organisations to accept the challenge by reaching out to CBTC Race Director Heather Cooper at heather.trianglechallenge@outlook.com before Friday December 20th.”
