Today, I got to witness firsthand where your support for the Moose Jaw Running Festival goes.
I sat in on one of our little ambassador Lydia’s appointments at the Pediatric Rehabilitation Department, and I don’t know if I’ll ever fully have the words for what I saw🥰
Watching Lydia work today was emotional. She was sweating, fighting for every little step. It took over 30 minutes to move a short distance — but every step mattered.
And that’s what this is all about.
Karrah shared with me that she alone receives around 150 new physiotherapy referrals every year, and some families spend only a short time here, while others are supported for years.
What stood out most to me is this:
the support from our community doesn’t just buy equipment — it shows these families they are not alone.
It shows them their community believes every child deserves the best care, the best resources, and the opportunity to reach their fullest potential.
This is why the Moose Jaw Running Festival matters.
Every registration.
Every sponsor.
Every volunteer.
Every dollar.
It all goes back into helping kids like Lydia.
And my hope is that every year this race keeps growing — so we can keep giving back, keep building, and keep making a difference.
Because this is so much bigger than a finish line. ❤️
