Even during a pandemic, SportChek will be carrying on a tradition that has
been taking place for nearly 50 years – but with a twist! The 2021
SportChek Mother’s Day Run, Walk and Ride is going virtual to support
Canadian Tire Jumpstart Charities
and the
Calgary Health Foundation NICU.
The SportChek Mother’s Day Run, Walk and Ride has been one of Calgary’s
largest family fundraising events, and by going virtual the race can
include everyone across Canada. From May 7 to 9, participants from all over
Canada will run, walk, and ride – in their neighbourhoods, on trails, and
at home on exercise machines – all for a good cause.
Participants will be able to login to a special event platform, and choose
a route, pace and distance (5 km or 10 km) to complete by the end of the
weekend. The platform will let racers track their performance with an app,
appear on the event’s virtual leaderboard, and provide them with a
personalized finisher’s certificate that can be printed at home.
To keep the engagement and excitement high, participants can also upload
their pictures, videos and posts from their individual runs, walks and
rides to social media using the #FindWhatMovesYou hashtag. This will also
qualify them for a chance to win some great prizes from SportChek.
All Canadians are welcome to register as individuals or as a team.
Participants will also receive a swag bag and access to an exclusive
SportChek VIP pricing event. +* To learn more, and to register
