The workout to conquer cancer is back! It’s an initiative by the BC Cancer Foundation to encourage us to move for those who aren’t able to and runs for the whole month of May. You can participate by:

• Going for a run, walk, bike ride, dance or an intententional movement everyday

• Logging your activity daily or weekly to hold yourself accountable

  • Join the GrasPods Strava club!

• Use the hashtag #workoutBC when posting on strava or tag @workoutbc on Instagram or Twitter

The Relay for Life by the Canadian Cancer Society and UBC runs from March 22-26th this year. For those who do not know about this event, it is a festival-like fundraising event where team members take turns walking around a track or designated path. You can learn more here. Due to COVID-19, it is happening virtually this year with lots of virtual activities. There are also lots of prizes.

Aside from the walk/run/bike part, planned activities include:

• ASL and Zumba Class

• League of legends tournament

• Financial Literacy Class

• Bartending Class

Sign up for the GrasPods team above! You’ll have to join the Relay For Life 2021 club on Strava to record all walking/running/biking activity. Complete schedule and further event details can be found in the UBC Relay For Life 2021 Participant Toolkit.
