Couch Potato to 5K Race for my Mom, Margie <3
I am participating in the Beau's 5K for Ovarian Cancer Canada a fundraising event in support of Ovarian Cancer Canada. This year marks the 10th anniversary, and we are determined to ignite change.
On June 8th, I will run to raise funds to advance progress against ovarian cancer – the most fatal women’s cancer in Canada.
As some of you may know, my mom - Margie was diagnosed with cancer in September 2024. She is facing this battle as she has faced every adversity in her life - with tenacity, bravery, and optimism.
It's been a very trying and difficult 8 months. Watching the most powerful force of a woman battle daily has profoundly changed me.
I have felt helpless, but not hopeless. I saw this race as an opportunity to honour my mom's continuous battle and to get off my butt and train. It's only 5k, but I will run it like a marathon of a lifetime for my mom, and for all the women who have fought and are currently fighting women cancers.
Please donate to this worthy cause and to honour my mom's courageous battle.
Thank you for your generous support.
Love,
Ashley McK
