Halifax’s Ryan Keeping has reached Day 40 today as he runs across Canada for the Heart and Stroke Foundation!
His family members have heart issues so they are his inspiration along with his idol Terry Fox.
Ryan started out April 1st in St. John’s, Newfoundland at the Terry Fox statue and as now past Toronto after a warm welcome, as he runs two marathons a day running 75km a day for 99 days covering 7,386 kms!
His goal is to raise $100,000. and so far has over $74,000. raised!
Earlier in his journey over 400 runners joined Ryan here in his hometown of Halifax at Point Pleasant Park.
You can follow Ryan’s journey and find his Go Fund Me page HERE.
Last September I was lucky to meet Ryan when he ran 24 hours non-stop around Halifax’s Point Pleasant Park.

Good luck Ryan and flip the switch to “keep up the great run, Keeping!”
