Break Free 5/10k Run & Walk

You can expect to enjoy a fun day with Jessie's House event volunteer crew! The day will start with you easing into registration, powering up through a fun warm up and then we will catch a glimpse of you as you dash out of the starting line and are off to the races! Don't let the word race scare you, run, jog or walk, you can run your own race, at your own pace and you can even bring your dog along!

Crank your tunes or chit chat amongst friends as you walk or run and navigate your way through a beautiful running trail in Cardiff Park. Here you can expect to get a little wet and come out a little more colorful than when you started all for the love of community and helping us Break Free from DV!

The Break Free 5/10k Run & Walk is making a splash on June 24, 2023 at the beautiful Cardiff Park and we need your help friends. We are looking for volunteers to join us for a fun and colourful day as we work towards helping individuals and families BREAK FREE of abuse!

If you want to have some fun while making a difference in the community, we would love to hear from you!
