Welcome to the Runner’s Hub!

2021 Strides Runner V1This page has resources to assist you in completing your chosen run or walk for Strides For Health Care Heroes.

For 2021, we have integrated a fitness app called Strava that is directly embedded on this page. We invite participants to join our Strava Club “Strides For Health Care Heroes” so that your activity is automatically uploaded onto this page for accurate tracking. You may also submit your run or walk time manually via email to Connor Vincent at vincentco@hhsc.ca by sending in a photo of a fitness tracking device with your activity time and date clearly shown in the image.

*Note: Only runs completed between September 17 – September 26, 2021 will be eligible to win Strides For Health Care Heroes “fastest” time prizes. Please name your activities within the Strava App “Strides” or “Strides For Health Care Heroes” so that we may easily locate your designated activity.

We have also included several 5km and 10km routes that are provided for your convenience and are completely optional. You may select one of these routes or you may choose your own.

Please enjoy your runs/walks and thank you for your support of Strides For Health Care Heroes! Please refer to our “FAQ” page and “About” page for more information on the event. For any other questions regarding this event, please contact Connor Vincent at vincentco@hhsc.ca.
