**Join Me in Making Every Step Count!**
On May 26th 2024, I'll be lacing up my running shoes once again, this time for a 10 km run, and I am inviting you to be a part of this journey with me!
It all started with a simple walk around the track after dropping off my daughter, Makenzie, at school. One lap turned into five, and before I knew it, I was challenging myself to jog a lap. I vividly remember that first attempt - a mix of determination and embarrassment as I gasped for breath. But I persevered, setting a goal to run a 5 km before the beginning of the school year.
Despite rain, wind, and even the scorching European sun, I ran every single day, gradually building up my endurance. With the unwavering support of friends and family, I achieved my 5 km goal on Sat, Sept 2 2023 with some running beside me and others cheering from the sidelines.
Now, I'm setting my sights on a new challenge - a 10 km run - and am excited to be joining thousands of walkers and runners across Canada in the Shoppers Drug Mart® Run for Women, raising help for women’s mental health programs at Markham Stouffville Hospital Foundation (A hospital and a cause that is near and dear to my heart). Your support will not only motivate me to conquer this distance but also make a meaningful difference in the lives of those in need.
100% of the funds raised will go directly to women’s mental health programs in our community
