We believe that exercise and you can be the difference…

On Sunday, August 29th 2010 I became an Ironman alongside our founder Kim Kearns Pace and eight other IRONDames at Ironman Canada in Penticton, BC. It was an incredibly inspiring journey as well as day, that taught me the rewards of reaching for the stars, the strength of the human spirit and the amazing power of friendship.

In 2012 I will be embarking on a similar journey in support of a New Cancer Exercise Facility for WELLSPRING Halton-Peel. Along with IRONDames Marla Ashmore, Kim Schizas, Shirley Speakman and Brenda West I will be training to complete the Great Canadian Mountain Traverse: An 8 day 1002 K cycle from Lake Louise, Alberta to Whistler, British Columbia, commencing on Sunday, September 2nd 2012. It is set to be an epic ride during which we will climb a total elevation of approximately 11,000 M (36,000 FT); the equivalent of cycling up Mt. Everest and making the mantra..."We love to climb!" an IRONDame reality!

Please help the IRONDames meet their fundraising goal of raising $200,000 to construct and equip WELLSPRING Halton-Peel’s New Cancer Exercise Facility by clicking "Sponsor Me" and making a donation. By doing so you’ll be making an immeasurable difference in the life of someone fighting cancer.

Thank you in advance for your generosity!
