Help Rodalyn raise money

For participating in 2025 Sporting Life 10K

My Story

Some people run for the medal.

Some run for the challenge.

I run for something bigger — and this year, I’m doing it for the eighth time.


On Mother’s Day, I’ll join thousands of others on Toronto’s iconic Sporting Life 10K course. But what makes it truly special isn’t the finish line — it’s who we’re running for.

We’re running for Campfire Circle — a place where kids affected by cancer and serious illness get the chance to just be kids. Through magical camp experiences, hospital programs, and year-round support, Campfire Circle gives these kids the kind of joy and healing that medicine alone can’t provide.

This cause has stuck with me over the years, and each run reminds me of what resilience really looks like. If you’ve ever felt inspired watching someone fight for joy despite the odds — this is your chance to stand with them.

Here’s how you can help light the way:

Donate — every dollar helps bring camp magic to a kid who needs it

Share this page — help me spread the word and the mission 

Support however you can — a kind word, a cheer, or a high five (virtual ones welcome!)

This 10K may only last for couple of  hours, but the impact? That lasts a lifetime.

Thanks for supporting my 8th run and the incredible kids at Campfire Circle. Let’s make this one unforgettable.


With heart,

Rodalyn
