Story

On Saturday, May 23rd, my kiddos and I are running the Family 2K for The Good Companions 💛

Beatrice (5) has informed me she will “run fast sometimes,” which honestly feels like a solid race strategy. Gus (10) is treating this like a highly organized tactical operation… I am not entirely sure I made the cut for his plan, but I’m showing up anyway.

We’re doing this to raise funds for The Good Companions, and the work they do every day to support older adults and adults with disabilities across Ottawa.

If you’re able to support us, we’d really appreciate it. Every bit helps keep those programs going and those connections growing.

We’ll be the ones somewhere between jogging, negotiating pace, and laughing at ourselves halfway through.

Thanks for cheering us on!! We’ll take all the encouragement we can get 💛
