In our first year of the fundraiser, we organized a virtual week-long Run/Walk/Bike-a-Thon to cover 1800km - the distance from Wickwire Field in Halifax to the Princes Margaret Hospital in Toronto, where Grayson was receiving chemotherapy treatments at the time. On the last day of our week-long effort to reach this mileage point, we cleared that total, covering a total of 1998km within our Strava Group of 156 members. A special shoutout to Francis McMahon, who singularly ran over 150km in less than a week.
In addition, last year's fundraiser raised over $5000, which directly went to the Princess Margaret Hospital's Cancer Research Center. This year, we're transitioning to an in-person 5km run on August 24th, with the option of running it virtually.
