Whether you are completing your race virtually or joining us for an in-person event, remember to let people know that they can support you or participate in the event too! 

Anytime you’re working toward your goal, use your Freedom to Move merch. Don’t forget to post your pictures online and tag @DMRFCanada using #FreedomToMove

Fundraising will run from the start of the campaign  until July 14! Together, let's raise $50,000.00 for dystonia research and support programs.   

Plan your route. Remember you can do this over the period of a whole month, so you can run, walk or wheel just 10 minutes at a time! Try to find a route where there won’t be lots of people to dodge.

Carry ID in case of emergency. With that ID, also have the names and phone numbers of local relatives or friends.

Dress appropriately for the weather. If you’re going outside in low light, be visible and wear bright-coloured or reflective gear.

Stay hydrated! Drink water before you feel thirsty.

Try to enjoy yourself in the moment and practice gratitude while you exercise.
