Shoppers Drug Mart Run for Women

Closing the gender gap in mental illness and addiction research and care at The Royal

Women are twice as likely as men to be diagnosed with depression or anxiety.

Despite the progress that has been made, too many women continue to face barriers when seeking care and treatment for their mental illness or addiction.

Delays in access and research have devastating effects – not only for women, but for their families as well.

Start Times:

8:15 a.m. – 1K Little Steps
8:35 a.m. – Welcome and Warm-up
9:00 a.m. – 10K Start
9:15 a.m. – 5K Run Start
9:20 a.m. – 5K Walk Start

With your support of The Royal, more women and their families can access the help they need, when they need it, so they can reclaim who they were meant to be.
