The Sporting Life 10K is an annual 10K running/walking event on Yonge Street in Toronto, that has taken place every May since 2003.[1] Money raised from the Sporting Life 10K goes towards funding Campfire Circle (formerly Camp Ooch and Camp Trillium) – which provides year-round programs for kids with childhood cancer[2][3][4] or serious illness and their families in paediatric hospitals across Ontario, in local communities, and at two medically supported overnight camps.
27,000 people participated in 2013.[5]
