At Run for Life, we believe that endurance running events have the opportunity to build stronger communities through sport. An important aspect of this community building is to work hand in hand with our First Nation partners. We encourage runners to show up – not just well-trained – but also well-informed with knowledge of, and respect for, the land and her peoples. Our race creates an opportunity for us all to gain a new perspective, to show up, to learn, to support, and to give visibility to the important stories and the First Peoples of the traditional territories upon which we run.
We are working collaboratively with our First Nation partners to improve the event and bring a unique experience to racers, volunteers, and community members.
Together we fly!
