My Story…
This year I'm bringing the Toronto Walk for Arthritis back for a victory lap! The comeback we've all been waiting for - Team Achy Breaky Joints' revival (but it's just me running for 21km this time). Help me raise money for the Arthritis Society, Canada’s largest charitable funder of cutting-edge arthritis research.
My sister Naomi was diagnosed with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis when she was 18, but has been living with Arthritis since she was 15.
Arthritis is Canada’s most common chronic disease and there is no cure. The disease affects the lives of six million Canadians (1 in 5 adults) – impacting their mobility, their ability to work, their time with their family and friends, and sometimes causing near constant pain. More than half of people with arthritis are under 65. Without a brighter spotlight on this serious issue, the number of Canadians with arthritis will rise to nine million by 2040. That’s 1 in 4 Canadians impacted by this disease – along with their families and communities.
Donate to help Alyssa raise money for 2024 TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon’s fundraising campaign.
