To kick off the holiday season Rob Mackay and Donald Peterson will be embarking on a 24-hour treadmill run on December 11th, their goal will be to complete a 24-hour distance run on a treadmill as well as to raise funds and awareness for the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada, an organization dedicated to finding a cure for MS. The treadmills will be located at Crossfit Zone (613 Herald Street), Victoria but you can also watch the run via webcast here ( www.crossfitzone.ca ).
You can support the run!
These two ultramarathon runners will each be attempting to run as far as they can during the 24-hour time limit and they will be raising dollars for each kilometre they traverse. You can pledge the runners by by visiting the Treadathlon site.
