GoodLife Fitness Marathon

As you may know, over the past several years we have entered a large group of staff, individuals and volunteers in the GoodLife fitness Marathon to raise money for Lifetime Networks.

Year after year, this has proven to be a great fundraiser for Lifetime Networks and a great example of inclusion!

You can participate in the 8km, half marathon, full marathon, or if you are a Parent or Grandparent you can enter children in the 1km kids run too!

I encourage you to enter to run\walk and be a part of our team.

We also need volunteers so if you would rather hang out at the finish line or cheer stations we can use you!

Please contact [email protected] if you wish to volunteer.

When you register to run it will walk you through setting up an on-line fundraising page. Please remember to sign up to be a part of the Lifetime Networks Urban Runners Team.

If you want further information, please don’t hesitate to contact me at [email protected] or 250-477-4112.

Let’s get our biggest team ever out on the course!

Fall Fling is a fun evening out and a great way to connect with friends and colleagues from BC’s diverse disability community. And your attendance is an opportunity to show your support for our work and for British Columbians with disabilities. All proceeds from Fall Fling benefit people with disabilities through Disability Alliance BC’s programs and services. DABC’s Executive Director, Jane Dyson, is retiring this year and this will be her last DABC gala. We really hope you can join us to help celebrate her 20-year legacy advocating for people with disabilities!
