Lifemark is a sponsor of the Rattle Me Bones Race which took place on Sunday, October 29, 2017 at the Canada Aviation and Space Museum. Proceeds support research in bone cancer, malignancies that affect mobility and the promotion of healthier bones. Rattle Me Bones features 5 events: Zombie Run, half marathon Crazybone, 10k Wishbone, 5k Funnybone and a 1k Jigglebone.

It was certainly a chilly day, so our team; Julie Dignard, Diana Berardi, Joanne Marleau, Mylène Séguin and Anne Edgell-Kennedy from our Carling clinic, braved the weather with multiple layers and mitts! We shared information about our services, answered questions, handed out Lifemark lip balm and Halloween chocolates! We have next year’s race already on our minds as we plan for more involvement and discuss ideas.
