Lace Up Your Way

We invite you to #LaceUpYourWay! You choose the activity and you set the pace. Whatever you decide to do, every Lacer helps fund education, support services, advocacy and diabetes research that could lead to the next big medical breakthrough.

Run

Whether you’re a hobby jogger or love the thrill of going fast, running is one of the quickest ways to clock your kilometres.

Ride

Hop on your bike, scooter, or skateboard to go the distance. Indoor bikes count, too! This is the easiest way to complete the 100k Challenge!

Walk

Walking is an easy way to exercise, and a great way to get the whole family involved: parents, kids, and even your pets!

Move

Join us by stretching, toning, or dancing in your living room! Every two hours of a workout is about 10 kilometres of distance travelled.
