Women's Movement Series: Run, Learn & Support Girls in Sport

Built for women who run the city. This is an evening for women who move with purpose, connect with their community, and finish the night a little stronger than they started it. Join us for a community-led 5 km seawall run, a demo of the latest On footwear, a talk from Form Physiotherapy on strength and speed, and a relaxed social with bubbles and charcuterie to wrap up the night. This event is also part of our contribution to Move for the Girls, Girls Forward Foundation's nationwide October campaign in honour of International Day of the Girl. Every ticket helps power their mission of getting girls moving, and keeps them moving for life. About the talk Form Physiotherapy joins us for a post-run session on the practical side of performance: how building strength and improving posture can translate directly into a faster, more efficient stride. Whether you're training for your first 5 km or your next PB, this talk will give you a few things to work on right away. Why we're moving for the girls This year, our run supports the Girls Forward Foundation, Canada's leading organization dedicated to empowering girls through sport, physical activity, and education. Since launching in 2005, Girls Forward has reached over 36,000 youth across Canada, building programs that pair physical activity with mentorship and leadership development, from age five right through early adulthood. The need is real: by adolescence, half of girls have already stopped participating in sport, and 35% say they don't feel expected to be good at it in the first place. Girls Forward is working to change that, one program at a time, and this October, our run is part of their nationwide Move for the Girls campaign, marking International Day of the Girl and rallying communities across the country to move together in support of girls in sport. $10 from every ticket goes directly to Girls Forward's mission.
