Walking
Across Canada
Status:
Physical training begins!
Fire. The element of energy, movement, and passion, The opportunity to learn more about the fire that burns within oneself.
After spending so much time away from my home to explore
the rest of the world, I think it's time to get to know
Canada a bit better. Fire represents my passion and patriotism
for my country, a burning desire to be surrounded by its
great outdoors, as well as the metabolic energy - the blood,
sweat and tears - used to travel across its huge expanse.
In the spring of 2011, I intend to travel the entire length
of Canada - from Victoria to St. John's - using the Trans
Canada Trail. This journey will be a combination of biking,
canoeing and walking, covering a distance of up to 12,000
km!
The Cause
of this project is to raise funds for the Heart and Stroke
Foundation of Canada, advancing medical research and disease
prevention!
What is the Trans Canada Trail and what will I encounter
along the way? Visit The
Trail to find out!
How can I carry camping gear, food and other necessities?
The answer is to transform an ordinary mountain bike into
an all-terrain mule train! Check out The
Transporter!
Funding the project to purchase maps, food, communications
equipment and athletic gear will require Project
Supporters.
