Lace up those shoes for Sunday's CIBC Run for the Cure, a one-or five-kilometre walk or run for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation.
Join a team, create a team or register as an individual. Those who don't want to run or walk can volunteer to help make the event run smoothly.
The event is Canada's largest single-day, volunteer-led fundraising event dedicated to raising funds for breast-cancer research, education and awareness. Last year, 170,000 participants raised more than $30 million.
Cheer on participants or take the time to visit the survivor tent, where breast cancer survivors will share stories about how their lives have been affected by breast cancer.
The one-and five-kilometre walk/runs start and finish at parking lot 6 at the University of Victoria.
Here is the schedule of events:
7 a.m.: Final registration and donation drop-off.
8: 45 a.m.: warm-up.
9 a.m.: start of run/walk
10 a.m.: awards.
10: 30 a.m.: survivor parade
