The Canal Pursuit for mental health is a 750 km relay run along the Trent-Severn Canal from Port Severn to Trenton, across to Kingston, then up the Rideau Canal to Ottawa ending on Parliament Hill at the Centennial Flame, to help raise awareness and funds for mental health issues in cooperation with the Mood Disorders Society of Canada.
Join the Move For Mental Health Challenge. Relay teams will be running 100 km per day for 7-1/2 days, but depression never rests. So we encourage you to get active. You can join the relay team and run a 10 km segment or two, or even run your own fundraiser! You can run, walk, cross train, spin, knit, swim…..just move! This is your chance to participate and help us raise awareness of mental health and reduce stigma when you register for the Move For Mental Health Challenge. Create your own fundraising page, upload a photo, share your inspiration and ask your friends and family to donate/sponsor you.
