#WEARECALGARYPRIDE
Welcome to the first ever Calgary LOVE IS LOVE MILE.
The idea for the Love is Love Mile goes back a few years and while it was never meant to be a virtual event, Run Calgary and Calgary Pride didn't want to wait to bring more love to this wonderful city.
Let's be real for a minute... couldn't we all use a LOT more love right now?
Like all Run Calgary events, this is an inclusive event open and welcome to everyone. The Love is Love Mile celebrates our individuality and we encourage you to show up and just be you.
Our goals are many... to bring two exceptional communities together, fundraise for Calgary Pride, make fitness more accessible to the LGBTQ2S+ (Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer Two-Spirit +) community and finally to further a culture of learning and allyship in the running community.
Run or walk a virtual mile anywhere and anytime during Calgary Pride week from August 28th to September 6th.
Show your Calgary Pride spirit and have some fun when you run or walk your Love is Love Mile by dressing up, visiting some cool Calgary landmarks and taking selfies tagging both #wearecalgarypride and #runcalgary to be eligible to win awesome prizes.
Run Calgary and Calgary Pride can't wait for the in-person Love is Love Mile during Pride Week in 2021.
