At Beaver / Elk Lake in Saanich, near Victoria, BC, the Goddess Run offers a 5K or 10K race with a straightforward approach: run, walk, or skip to the finish. Cathy Noel of DFH Real Estate Ltd. presents this live event, scheduled for early March.
Participants can also choose a virtual option with 5K, 10K, half marathon, and marathon distances, to be completed in one day or over a couple of months. The event benefits Victoria Hospice and Victoria Women’s Transition House, with a fundraising target. Registration provides a lilac long-sleeved technical half-zip, race bib, and finisher medal. This is the sixteenth annual edition of the series; since its inception, almost 15,000 participants have finished, contributing over CA$300,000 to charity.
