A crowd of over 200 people, including Olympic medalists Alexandre Bilodeau, Jennifer Heil and Danièle Sauvageau, ran, walked, biked and otherwise exercised their way to Parc Mont-Royal on Saturday, September 25, to help launch One million kilometres, one million dollars.

 

The project is a year-long initiative by the MCH Foundation which encourages members of our community to be more active, while raising funds to support our young patients. To celebrate the launch, a short video was filmed which will soon premiere on YouTube, and which will also star Olympian Joannie Rochette.

 

Watch for it at www.1millionkm.com [1] – and for all who joined us on Saturday, thanks a million! To see photos from the launch event, please click here [2].
