Clara’s Big Ridewill visit every province and territory in Canada to grow awareness and action in mental health and to help end the stigma around mental illness. Her Ride began March 14th in Toronto and will conclude on Canada Day, July 1, in Ottawa. Clara’s Big Bide is an enormous task, even for an Olympic athlete.  She will cycle between 75 and 225 kilometers, 6 days per week, for over 3 months, until she travels the full 12,000 kms.   An average of 150 kilometers each day, regardless of the weather, road conditions or mountains! The ultimate goal for Clara’s Big Ride is to engage the communities along the way and their youth in conversations about mental health.  Clara’s Big Ride will also showcase and support the work and value of local mental health organizations across Canada. Don’t miss the Carnival celebration at Clara Hughes Recreation Park in Winnipeg on June 14 (11am-4pm), followed by the Social event at the Manitoba Musuem starting at 7pm.
