For the month of August, we are inviting people to participate in our Walk Across Canada. Our goal is for all participants to cumulatively walk/run/roll the 6,774 km distance from St. John’s, Newfoundland to Victoria, British Columbia. This event is aimed at promoting physical and mental wellness by encouraging people to get up and go – whether walking, running, or rolling, everyone can participate and reach their goals.
In addition to this campaign encouraging positive physical and mental wellness, Walk Across Canada is also a fundraising event aimed at raising money to support Causeway’s Wellness Program and encouraging Causeway’s Wellness Warriors to continue working on their fitness goals.
Whenever you go for a run or a walk, make sure you track your distance and upload your totals to your Race Roster profile! You can also fundraise for Causeway's Wellness Program by sharing your Race Roster profile :)
