Supporters – Burnaby Lake Run

The Burnaby Lake Run could not take place without the support of our sponsors and local communities. We would like to thank you for helping us to make our event possible. We couldn’t do it without you!

LaPower Running Club

LaPower was established in 2014 as a non-profit organization and formed in the Chinese community. The mission of the club is to promote a healthy lifestyle and engage more people in our weekly activities as well as the local running events.

Currently we have over six hundred members across the Greater Vancouver from ages twenty to sixty. We usually use the Chinese social media "Wechat" to communicate. We have five groups from different cities that run together in Vancouver, Richmond, Burnaby, White Rock and Coquitlam. Our members include people just starting to run to serial marathoners.

More than just running, we also have our LaPower volunteer team to support local big events such as the BMO Marathon and the Scotiabank Half-marathon.

Our club has no membership fee. Joining our club is free, as our club is sponsored by Concord Pacific.

Title Sponsor

Concord Pacific Developments Inc. was formed in 1987 to develop Concord Pacific Place on the former Expo Lands in downtown Vancouver. In the late 90’s, the group merged with the publicly listed Burcon Group, which controlled Oxford Properties that owned one of the largest office and retail portfolios in Canada. In the early 2000’s, Concord Pacific became a separate public company and was subsequently privatized.

The Concord Group of Companies success has continued with Canada’s largest skyline defining communities, Concord Pacific Place in Vancouver and Concord CityPlace in Toronto. Concord has further expanded with numerous large scale master-planned communities across the Canada and is now developing in the UK. Concord has completed over 130 residential and mixed use buildings with more than 50 in various stages of planning and development.

Over the past 25 years, the Concord Group of companies has also grown into other industry sectors including software and information technology, telecommunications, as well as green energy projects in solar, wind and hydroelectric power generation.
