Why I’m Participating in the Great Canadian Hike

There’s something magical about being on the Trail. The fresh air, the stillness of the trees, and the feeling of connection to nature and community. I’ve always turned to the outdoors for peace, health and perspective — and the Trans Canada Trail offers all that and more.

This fall, I’m joining the Great Canadian Hike, a nationwide challenge where people across Canada will hike, bike, paddle or roll and log their kilometres to collectively reach 30,000 kilometres in 30 days — the length of the Trail from coast to coast to coast.

From September 20 to October 19, I’ll be logging my kilometres and raising funds to help keep the Trail accessible, safe, and thriving — for everyone, now and for future generations.

You can sign up to participate, donate directly to my fundraising page, or share my campaign with your network to help spread the word.

Let’s be part of something great — together.

Reflection Season - Lets Get Moving!

Saturday 13th Sep
Fall is the season of reflection, Im taking this time to reflect on EVERYTHING. This year was WILD not just for me, for many people.
Im taking back my life, reflecting on my past and using that strength and teaching to move forward. Im kicking off this journey with a challenge! I signed myself up for the Great Canadian Hike - 30km in 30 days! Its a NATION WIDE challege where we Hike, Bike, Walk, Run, Paddle or Roll in support of the Trans Canada Trail.
From September 20 to October 19, I’ll be logging my kilometres and raising funds to help protect and maintain the world’s longest multi-use trail system, which spans nearly 30,000 kilometres and connects communities across every province and territory.
How cool would it be to Hike the whole trail? ....Thats not what I'll be doing, but I will be hiking/walking selected parts and challenging myself to start at different heads the majority of the time.
Together with people across Canada, we’re aiming to collectively log 30,000 kilometres in 30 days — the length of the Trail from coast to coast to coast. Every kilometre logged and every dollar raised helps keep the Trail safe, accessible and ready for the next GREAT adventure.
I’ve set a personal fundraising goal of $300, and your support would mean the world to me!
Here’s how you can get involved:
Join the challenge — hike, walk, paddle or roll in your own way
Donate to my fundraiser — every gift helps protect the Trail
Share my page — spread the word with fellow trail lovers

Thank you to my supporters
