I am excited to host my annual Mother's Day Walk/Run, supporting a cause that many of you know is close to my heart: Parkinson's. Each step we take and every dollar we raise not only supports those currently impacted by Parkinson's, like me, but also paves the way for groundbreaking research for better treatments. Please join me so that we can come together for a cause that truly matters. Your presence and support would be an honour and a testament to our community's strength — let's lace up our shoes, everyone! - Carlota Lee

More Information
As many of you know, I have been an active marathon runner and fundraiser for years. But in 2019, my life took an unexpected turn when I was diagnosed with Parkinson's. Since then, I've had to adapt to a slower pace and navigate new limitations. Despite these challenges, my commitment to supporting Women for Parkinson's has only grown stronger.
This Mother’s Day, I’m inviting you to join me in supporting this vital cause. Many people think Parkinson’s is just about tremors, but it’s so much more — and it affects everyone differently. Women, in particular, often experience unique challenges, which is why education and support are so critical. Together, we can keep the conversation going and ensure women with Parkinson’s feel empowered and supported.
The SuperMom Walk/Run is the perfect opportunity to come together, enjoy a fun day, and raise much-needed funds for Parkinson Canada. The event includes breakfast, snacks, and prizes for completing the 5km and 10km Walk/Run!
Join me on May 11th to show your support for Women for Parkinson's. It would mean the world to me to have you by my side as we walk together for this important cause.
And don't forget - if you bring your Supermom t-shirt from a previous year, you'll be entered into a draw for a gift card from Innovative Fitness!
Let's make this Mother's Day unforgettable!
