A big thanks to MyCollingwood.ca for covering the Mocktail Mile and showing up along the route to celebrate with us!

My heart is broken as I write this. Tomorrow’s Mocktail Mile will be dedicated to helping the Reichel Family.

My friend Sonya Reichel has been diagnosed with inoperable brain cancer. After emergency surgery last week, which came as a complete shock, she is recovering and waiting to learn about next treatment options.

Sonya is one of the smartest, most inspiring people I have ever known, and I’m so grateful I got to work alongside her. She would be there in a second for anyone else in this situation. She has helped so many people, families and animals, and now it’s our turn to step up for her.

If you can, please give what you can to support Sonya, Marco, Rose and Anna: https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-for-sonya-the-reichel-family

If you can’t give, please share this post. It all helps.

Sending all my love to Sonya and her family. 💛

Two big wins to celebrate in the Dry Run Club crew this week! ✨

Lauren Dixon and her family ran the Turkey Trot today, and Lauren absolutely crushed it with a 5:44/km average pace. She has trained so hard this year and has become one of our pace setters, helping others find their stride. Proud doesn’t even cover it. 💫

Kristie Hamilton-Smith and Adam ran their first Collingwood 10K since becoming parents (twice over!) last weekend. They bring fresh energy and so much heart to our club, and they are one heck of a team together. 💜💜

Big gratitude and respect to every member who shows up, cheers loud, and lifts each other up along the way. That’s what this club is all about.

Who’s next? 👟
