REGISTRATION CLOSED FOR 2023 - THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
*We will NOT be taking on-site registration.*
My Journey to Just Live is hosting a fundraiser event, on August 20th which happens to be the 2 year Cancer-versary date of Michelle’s diagnosis with Stage 4 Incurable Cancer. Michelle was diagnosed in 2021 with an ultra rare Sarcoma cancer called Eplithelioid Hemangioendothelima, EHE for short. Michelle has innumerable tumours throughout her body and takes a daily cancer treatment in hopes of stabilising the cancer for as long as possible.
She started running in January 2022, 5 months postpartum, and 4 months post diagnosis; she never had run before. Her goal was to set herself up for success, and was hopeful for the best possible outcome to tackle this bleak cancer diagnosis. Michelle is now often seen running, pulling and/or pushing all 3 of her children; Juliet (7), Adeline (4) and Hatton (1), just for fun. This event will have family and running at the heart, and with hope to raise funds along the way.
This event will be an Atlantic Chip Timing Event for the 5km and 10km Walk/Run; sponsored by Arsenault Bros. Construction and SFX Transport. It will take place at the Town of Cornwall, heading down Mercedes Drive accessing the trail system, and streets of Cornwall. The route takes you along a picturesque waterview, and throughout the trails within the woods. This is a looped event; with a clear, well marked, breakout section for the 5/10km route change.
There will be a 1km accessibility Walk/Run for all abilities and ages. This route will include Mascots, Disney Princesses, and Super Heros to add that extra fun for the kids!
Each runner/walker will receive a finish “medal,” a token of accomplishment, “I DID” to add to the back of their race shirts that read, “I CAN, I WILL.”
This event is shaping up to be a FULLY SPONSORED event making every dollar count, thanks to our generous sponsors; so let’s come together and support a great cause!
Be sure to register EARLY to ensure you get a Just Live Race kit that includes a Race T-Shirt (pending Sponsor) and Cinch Bag (sponsored by the Sarcoma Cancer Foundation of Canada); oh, and there's a few surprises!
But, hurry, these are only offered to the first 200 registered in the 5km/10km events and to the 100 registered in the 1Km Run/Walk with Race Kit event!
