Race Day Logistics

The event is all about community – you can expect to see old friends, meet your online endo allies in real life, make memories and directly support vital programs offered by The Endometriosis Network Canada . Your entry also includes a run bib and hot/cold pack for all your on the go endo relief needs.

The route is 5 km, but whether you walk, jog, or run, honour your body’s pace and complete whatever distance feels right for you. It’s about the journey!

Our event embraces a non-competitive atmosphere, opting out of chip timing in favour of celebrating personal achievements. 

Fundraising & Donations

Here are some ways to help you reach your fundraising goal:

  • Reach Out to Friends & Family – Send personal messages, emails, or texts explaining why you’re participating and asking for their support. 
  • Leverage Social Media – Share your fundraising link, post updates about your progress, and use photos or stories to spread awareness about endometriosis.
  • Ask Your Employer About Matching Gifts – Many companies will match employee donations, doubling your impact! Check with your HR department to see if they offer a matching program.
  • Say Thank You – Show appreciation with a heartfelt message or social media shoutout. Every dollar raised helps make a difference! 

Yes you can make a donation without participating in the race, you can donate to a team of your choice as well.
