The situation has resulted in the delay of a couple of Island Run events  from getting their routes certified. 

Coach Pimm has been commissioned to measure the Divas Half Marathon as well as the Longboat Toronto Island Run's 5 and 10 km. routes. However, the Divas event, which was originally scheduled for June 11, had to change venues, moving their event to The Donlands (NB- the route was not certified, but the  organizers indicated on their website, they will hold their event  on  the Toronto Island in 2018 - and it will on a certified route).
