Cheo Benefits From Free Form Fitness Event
Nov 18, 2007
CHEO was the big winner at last weekend’s fitness competition organized by Free Form Fitness of Kanata.
Almost 70 individuals turned up at Sunday’s event: 30 participants in the 5K, 20 in the maximum strength and 18 in the Bodyweight Endurance competition.
Chris Knapp and Alisha Jiwan won the mens’ and ladies 5K run. Art Chan was the male winner in the maximum weight lift and Karen Roden won the ladies weight lift. Tim St-Jacques won the Endurance portion of the event. Marta Tkaczyzn won the Endurance for the ladies. Overall winner was Simon Adeseko for men and Alisha Jiwan again took top overall prize among the ladies.
In the end the event raised $1245 for CHEO and the winners took home $900 in prize money – after donating some of their winnings to CHEO too!
All in all it was a great day for everyone involved! Plans are already underway for the same event in the Spring of next year!
