New Year’s Resolutions are right around the corner, and if your goals are to get active, enjoy the great outdoors more and feel good about yourself, the Northern Cancer Foundation and Kivi Park have just the events for you.
On Sunday Jan. 19 at 11 a.m., the Northern Cancer Foundation will host its Trek for Cancer Snowshoe Fun Run & Fat Bike Race, “a great family friendly event with courses of varying lengths and difficulty,” said a news release. The first-ever fat bike race starts at 12:30 p.m.
The Snowshoe Trek will have 1K, 3K, 5K and 7K distances, and registration fees are $5 for kids and $35 for adults.
Fat Bike courses are five km and 10 km and cost $5 for kids and $35 for adults.
Adults can do both events for $50.
Registration starts at 10 a.m. Snowshoe rentals will also be available for $5 courtesy of event sponsor Adventure 365.
Two weeks later, on Sunday, Feb. 2 at 11 a.m., the Northern Cancer Centre will be hosting its Cross-Out Cancer Cross-Country Ski Loppet, which is fun for skiers of all ages and skill levels. The one-km course will be $5 for kids while the five-km and 15-km courses will be $5 for kids and $35 for adults.
Registration starts at 10 a.m. All ski courses are classic-style, not skate ski, so be sure to bring the right set. Both events take place at the main site of beautiful Kivi Park.
Online registration is now available at ncfsudbury.com. Registration can also be done in person on Jan. 19 or Feb. 2, and over the phone by phoning 705-523-HOPE (4673).
