Route Details
Evangeline Walks 2023
Nothing stops this kid when she has a goal!
She was originally inspired by one of her teachers, Jyan Newman, who did the Ride to Conquer Cancer. Only this is not an organized fundraiser, this is just a little girl walking to try and make a difference.
This will also be her second year doing this walk on Thanksgiving weekend.
Her plan?
Over a 4 day period, on Thanksgiving Weekend, she is going to walk from her Grandparents home in Binbrook (just past Hamilton) all the way to our home in Toronto. Last year she did 91km, this year she is going to do 100km from start to finish! Don't worry, she'll have an adult (or 2) with her the whole way.
Her why?
Since she was a young child, she has been passionate about supporting the unhoused! This could be giving spare change, buying items at the grocery store, giving bags with warm socks, fruit, snacks and personal notes or helping her mom with her fundraisers.
After seeing what a difference the $6000 she raised last year makes for the youth at Covenant House Toronto, she set her sights on raising $10,000 this year. She loves how this organization helps to protect and rebuild lives, giving kids opportunities she knows she has. This, this is moving her little legs 100km!
What can you do?
Share this with your friends and family, donate, join our Facebook group (Evangeline Walks 2023), share words of encouragement and watch her journey.
We invite you to join us on Thanksgiving Monday to welcome her home! We will update the Facebook Page with her homecoming timing closer to the day. You either know where we live or send me a private message and I can tell you where we live!
Together, we'll watch this little fierce girl change the world!
With love from the Link Family

About the Calorie Calculator
Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.
When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.
Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
