project 24 - Challenge Yourself

Races are being canceled, gyms are closed and mental + physical limits are being challenged more than ever. Last year, I felt these effects and had an idea to challenge a handful of friends to run in a team or solo for 24 hours. The goal was, if we can get through the next 24 hours together, as tough as they may be, we can get through anything.
The idea quickly got wind and we had runners join across Canada, raised a bit of money for charity, and most importantly saw real connections being made. We had first-timers hitting 5km, teams hitting over 200kms, and even a handful of people single legged'ly running over 100kms that day. It was inspiring to see people hitting personal bests and encouraging to see a community come together over a common goal.
With the success of the inaugural project 24 in 2021, I will be bringing it back this year, on January 23rd, 2022. This year's challenge is to complete 24km (in teams of 4 or solo) within 24hrs. For my friends in Canada (Toronto, Vancouver or Calgary) - I have teamed up with RAIDx to create a super fun and engaging course with wicked prizes. All the information can be found here: (Click Below Image for Event Website).
If you are not in Canada but would still like to join the challenge, you can enter our Strava Group and track your run/walk on Jan 23rd, 2022. (Click Below Image to join Strava group).
Challenge yourself and a friend to start 2022 off on the right foot. See you (virtually) on Jan 23rd!
