Regional wrap-up MAKING A RUN FOR IT N ot every lawyer may be as outgoing as Victoria���s Adam Campbell, but the marketing message is clear: A lawyer can create a lot of positive buzz for himself, a firm, and a charity by pursuing a passion. Campbell���s passion is running and the papers are now being shuffled to get him officially into the Guinness Book of World Records. In the fall of 2012, he ran the GoodLife Victoria marathon in a suit, complete with shirt and tie, smashing the old world record for running a marathon in a suit by 50 minutes with a time of 2:35:53. ���We got a lot of media attention,��� says Campbell, who finished sixth overall in a field of 1,724 runners, many of whom were international professional athletes in the B.C. capital for the competition. He was also voted male ultra runner of the year by Trail Running Canada magazine after an impressive string of wins and performances on the ultra circuit in 2012. ���It was quirky and fun,��� he said of the suit run. It also presented a different picture of the legal community as advance publicity over his run made him highly recognizable along the 42-kilometre route. His effort Adam Campbell has his eye on a world record for running marathons in a suit.
