Nick Walker

I have been associated with Frontrunners for the past 28 years of my life. I started with Frontrunners as a grass roots sponsored athlete through middle and high school and into University of Victoria. I was a competitive runner for many years, representing Canada in cross country, track and road running, and now race for fun and most recently ran London Marathon. With the help of Rob Reid (Frontrunners founder), I opened a store in Langford with a friend in 2005. Since then, I have worked closely with Rob to develop the business and in 2015, opened a third location in Victoria. In 2014, we expanded further by opening a second New Balance store in Nanaimo.

Below is a snapshot of some of my event work:

Oak Bay Half Marathon – Race Director

Bear Mountain 10k – Race Director

Vancouver Island Trail Running Series – Co-Director

Hatley Castle 8k – Co-Director

Cowichan Valley Wine Run – Event Coordiator

Keg Leg Brewery Run – Event Coordinator

Sunset Run Series – Event Coordinator

Running Coach – President of the Independent Running Retailers of Canada

Business Mentor to students at the Peter Gustavon School of Business
