THE K2J VIRTUAL RUN ACROSS CANADA
Starting Monday April 27, 2020 K2J Fitness started to run across Canada in a virtual kind of way!
We will run the first 5000 km roughly following the route taken by Terry Fox in 1980. Sadly, he had to end his run in Thunder Bay but we will continue on to Victoria. The entire route will be a little over 8100 km.
Here is how it works:
