I volunteered my time today in support of the Tourette's Syndrome Foundation of Canada by participating in the 1st Annual Trek For Tourette's at Point Pleasant Park in Halifax. I got involved with this event after a friend of mine asked me if I would participate. A mutual friend of ours has two sons with Tourette's, so I said I would do it. Today was a very nice day, weather-wise, which made the Trek a nice five kilometre walk. I raised $430, many thanks to my family, friends and colleagues who supported the cause.
At the event, they announced that the ten Treks across Canada raised about $50,000. It is truly amazing how much people can accomplish, each doing their small part.
On an exercise level, I kept up a good pace and burned another 535 calories on top of the 701 calories during Kenpo this morning. Ahhh! Feels so good!
