Bev's
Story:
As we think about
our Thanksgiving weekend we think about those
we care about and what we are thankful for.
At the Northern Cancer Foundation and the
SudburyROCKS!!! Marathon we are thankful for
our volunteers!
If you ran last
year’s event you probably remember a
volunteer at the corner of Eligin street and
Beach Street cheering you on with all her
might with her distinct raspy voice! That
was Bev Brisco, an amazing Board Member and
Volunteer with the Northern Cancer Foundation.
Bev is now going through cancer treatment
at the Northeast Cancer Centre. Volunteers
and supporters like Bev are another reason
to fundraise for the Northern Cancer Foundation
through the SudburyROCKS!!! Marathon.
As a friendly
reminder, as the Northern Cancer Foundation
gears up for the Virtual SudburyROCKS!!! Marathon
Presented by IONIC Mechatronics on Sunday,
October 25th, one of our longstanding partners,
Carriere Industrial, has come forward and
announced that they will be matching donations
(up to $4,000) leading up to race day! What
does that mean for you as runner and walker?
That means that every donation you bring in
for the Northern Cancer Foundation for the
SudburyROCKS!!! Marathon will be matched by
Carriere industrial!
This is the perfect
chance for you to go the extra distance and
help raise much needed funds for the Northeast
Cancer Centre for those we care about like
Bev Brisco.
Need help? We are here to answer any questions
you may have!

the Virtual 2020 Run for the Cure

stop us from coming together. Here's a message from
the Sudbury RFTC committee to thank you, Sudbury,

the re-imagined CIBCRunfortheCure today!
This year we welcomed 149 dedicated participants
in Sudbury who helped us raise $22,439.06 for the
CIBC Run for the Cure. Congratulations! With your
help, we raised an impressive $8,010,000.00 for
the Canadian Cancer Society from coast-to-coast.
CCS invests these dollars into ground breaking breast
cancer research, compassionate support services,
trusted cancer information and advocacy on behalf
of all Canadians.
We hope to see all of you at next year’s event
on Sunday, October 3.

The
Apex Warrior Trail Series for the
summer is complete.
We had 3 amazing events in 3 different
locations throughout Sudbury. There
was a lot of time invested in these
events, from the course planning,
making signs, course marking, custom
medals, and much more. Special thanks
to @rossbeyers for being my course
marking partner for the day. Those
day hikes were much more entertaining
with you there. A huge thanks to my
partner @mandy.lynn.ocr for your amazing
ideas, staying up late to paint, organizing
race kits, and making sure I have
everything together. We even got a
couple hours to have our dates out
in the trails marking together ??
The events would have been this great
without you.
Thanks to all the participants! Everyone
had great feedback, I wanted you all
to experience trail running and this
is it! It’s beautiful, challenging,
but so fun and rewarding.
Here are the results for the last
