The Run for One Planet is an ongoing run endeavour focused on "Inspiring Environmental Action, One Step at a Time".
Starting May 4th 2008, our co-founders Matt Hill and Steph Tait ran across Canada & around the perimeter of America, totaling 11,000 miles, doing over 420 marathons as a dynamic running duo. While running a marathon each almost every day, supported by an amazing team of over 30 people spread across the continent, they spoke to over 30,000 incredible kids, in more than 220 presentations, destroying 30 pairs of ASICS, giving media interviews almost daily, burning over 3 million calories, and raising over $130,000 for their Legacy Fund for Kids. On May 8th 2009 - now officially proclaimed "Run for One Planet Day" in the City of Vancouver - they completed the expedition!
Run for One Planet is now partnered with the Vancouver Foundation - Canada's largest, and one of North America's oldest, community foundations - to ensure our Legacy lives on in perpetuity.
