Phoenix is excited to be part of the Blue Nose Marathon’s Scotiabank Group Charity Challenge! Not only does the Blue Nose Marathon offer runners a chance to raise much needed funds for the young people we serve, Phoenix youth will also be lacing up for their fourth year running in the 5K run! You will sense their pride and determination as they face the journey ahead – both in life and at the Blue Nose Marathon. Please join us as we strive to raise $20,000, our biggest goal yet, in support of youth facing adversity. Help us break the cycle of poverty and homelessness!
On the weekend of May 20th, Phoenix youth will celebrate their fifth year of participating in the Blue Nose 5K run. Phoenix youth have excitedly begun preparing for the run. We hope you'll join us as we help these young people find hope and follow their dreams. Phoenix feels a deep connection to the Blue Nose Marathon as it is an event that represents the enormous resolve and fortitude that people need to achieve their goals. At Phoenix, we believe our youth represent these very traits.
Three years ago, a Phoenix youth participating in the Blue Nose, won in her age category - a tremendous accomplishment that she will cherish for years to come. Thousands of dedicated running enthusiasts will gather in Halifax for the 8th Annual Blue Nose Marathon. Each runner will eagerly confront their own personal challenges as they face the kilometers ahead. At Phoenix, we witness the same type of determination and perseverance in our youth.
The Blue Nose Marathon is the biggest annual race weekend in Atlantic Canada and offers runners five different categories in which they can participate. To make your running experience that much more meaningful, consider collecting pledges for one of the official charities. We hope you’ll think of Phoenix!
