Vanessa's Amazing Race

These past few months’ life changed for our great friend Vanessa Marks when she was diagnosed with MS. Anyone that knows Vanessa would describe her as STRONG so together we are going to get moving to deliver her strength. Vanessa is a great friend and co-worker to many of us at Nova Scotia Health.

Let’s get moving! 5k – that’s what we want you all to get out there and do for Vanessa! Lace up your sneakers for a walk, run, or grab your bike and peddle your way through 5k!

The event is a virtual 5k event.
You have from Friday August 7th to Sunday August 9^th to complete your 5k route. Everyone walks, runs or bikes their own unique course while safely maintaining physical distancing.

All proceeds collected through registration will go directly to Vanessa.

Registration is $15. There is a processing fee that each participant that registers will have to pay ($2.56) so the full fee everyone will have to pay is $17.56.

Feel Free to share your results and let's have some fun! You can share your results and/or post activity selfies in the Facebook event group.

Vanessa has thanked her support team through social media – words she shared as she stays strong through this “You think the world is bad but there are still some amazing people out there and I just happened to have them in my life.”

We are doing this for you Vanessa!
