Although I can't participate on race day, I'll still be fundraising and training hard this summer and will complete my 10km a day or 2 early in support of youth mental health.
Ringette has always been a great outlet for me, not only physically but mentally, and I've luckily been able to translate some of that to rollerblading in the summer. My family has also seen the affects of addiction and how it can impact everyone around, but unfortunately not everyone has the same resources or support system to help them cope.
1st off - thanks to the awesome support system I have out there that keeps me sane. ❤
2nd - I would love your support to help those who don't have that same outlook. ❤
This is my 6th year participating in #RBCRaceForTheKids in support of the Family Navigation Project at Sunnybrook which connects youth struggling with mental illness and addiction to the help they need.
If you're willing and able to help support me on this journey, consider donating to this very worthy cause! #YouthMentalHealth #RaceForTheKids #Sunnybrook
P.S. if we can reach my fundraising goal of $500, I'll bump that 10km up to 15km!
