The Challenge for Life 20km and 5km walks have returned! People of all ages and abilities are invited to take the Challenge.
Participate as an individual or as a team to illuminate the path for Manitobans and their families navigating the challenges of cancer. While raising both awareness and funds, you’ll also be embracing the power of movement to reduce your own risk of cancer. Regardless of the distance you choose, both walks end in a triumphant march down Victory Road where you can ring the bells of celebration as you cross the finish line!
The 20km
Enjoy a 20 kilometre walk beginning and ending at Assiniboine Park
and travelling through some of Winnipeg's most charming and historic neighbourhoods.
By registering to walk, you commit to raise a minimum of $250 for CancerCare Manitoba prior to June 14, 2025. You also pledge to make simple lifestyle changes that may reduce your risk of cancer.
