📣 FROM 5KM RUNS TO ULTRA MARATHONS: MY JOURNEY BEGINS. THE CREATION OF MOVE FOR CHANGE📣
In 2020, as a new father navigating a pandemic world shaken by George Floyd’s death, I found purpose in the streets of Don Mills, Toronto. What started as a way to process my emotions evolved into Move For Change.
It all began with a simple commitment: $1 donated for every kilometer I ran to support BIPOC youth organizations. Within weeks, friends and family joined the movement, and together we turned physical wellness into meaningful social change.
From casual 5km runs to marathons, ultra marathons, triathlons and even a Half Ironman, this journey has transformed not just my life, but the lives of countless others through our fundraising efforts.
This is just the beginning of my story. Follow along as I share the full 4-year journey of Move for Change, the challenges faced, milestones reached, and the community we’ve built together.
