In cooperation with the Lung Association, Newfoundland Labrador, the Corner Brook Running Club is asking that you consider participating in the Coast2Coast Challenge, a virtual trek across Canada to raise awareness about COPD, a serious breathing disease. From today to November 18th, keep track of the distance you exercise – you can count the minutes you walk on a treadmill, the kilometres you run or bike, the distance you swim or walk – any physical activity counts. Then report the distance you exercised to the NL Lung Association.
The COPD Awareness campaign for Western Newfoundland was officially launched this morning at the Pepsi Centre with help from Jacqueline Neville, member of the CBRC Executive. As runners, putting in the distance is our specialty, so let’s make all those kilometres count! We encourage you to register as a participant in the Coast2Coast Challenge by contacting the NL Lung Association:
