@adidas & @adidasrunning invited me to lace up with something new — the Terrex Agravic 3 trail runners — and let’s just say, this one’s different. 🌲🏃‍♂️

Trail running isn’t something I’ve ever really explored… until now. But there’s something about taking things off-road — the unpredictable paths, the fresh air, the sounds of nature, the challenge of new terrain — that gives my running journey a whole new spark. It’s a reminder that growth happens when we step into the unknown.

This experience was a shift I didn’t see coming, but it’s already one I’ll be chasing again. If you’ve been running the same routes, maybe it’s time to explore something new too. You never know — trail might just become your favorite kind of run.

Here’s to movement, nature, and the courage to try something different.

I’m Vee (@RunwithVee), a Brazilian-born runner who has just moved from Toronto to the Niagara region. I started to run about six years ago, just to prove to myself that I could do it. Even a continuous 1k seemed so impossible back then. But it’s only impossible if you don’t try. I never intended to become a runner as my main sport was road cycling, but things changed when I moved from Winnipeg to Toronto in 2019. Running was my way of exploring my new city — and claiming it as my own. I ditched cycling as I fell deeply in love with running. I find it very therapeutic — great to organize one’s ideas, too (when I was writing my PhD thesis, I did a lot of the thinking during my runs). I love to learn new things — and that’s what running enables you to do. You get to know better about your own body, rethink your nutrition, and see places from a different perspective. There’s always something new to see, especially if you try different running routes. That’s why when I travel, I always pack my running shoes. There’s no better way to explore a city.
The Beneva Mississauga Marathon Event is gonna be my third half-marathon and my first time ever running the streets of Mississauga. I’m beyond excited to soak up the city’s atmosphere and share this experience with y’all.

Thanks Vee for sharing your running journey! Can’t wait to have you back for the Mississauga Half Marathon! With our event fast approaching, there’s no time to waste! Join runners like Vee today for April 28. Registration link in bio

Monday Motivation- Another weekend of Cheer Squad Duties. Yesterday marked the 25th Annual Toronto St. Patrick’s Day Run and no better way to spend my weekend than be outside, cheer and spread love on to my loved ones and my Toronto/ running community.

I will always support and giveback to causes that means alot to me especially this race as the fundraising goes towards Achilles Canada and our Charitable Partners supporting community and ALL abilities. It provides the means and support to persons who are challenged by a variety of disabilities to realize their abilities, build self-esteem and to develop their level of physical fitness and strength thereby elevating their overall wellness, through running or other means of motion. Motion is accessible to all, Achilles Canada assists in breaking down barriers between able bodied people and people with disabilities, thereby contributing to a collective enhancement of life.

It was so great spending the day with my running family @littlewomen, seeing her and many friends running like @runwithvee , @charlesdemunda, @amput_o, @debonnaire_betty @king.ontherun, @eni_busari, @maryannejegs, @charlieannebrookes and more. Congratulations to all who ran yesterday and those who came out to cheer this past weekend. The weather was definitely a mixture with sun, wind, cloudy/ grey skies and than some snow but that didnt stop me from cheering and being there. Big shoutout to my dear friend/ family @ahh.noke
from all you do for the running community. You are a true inspiration and I am so happy to see you making a difference and hosting such an amazing running events, especially with @achilles.canada. Can't wait to run it next year.

Always remember, keep chasing your dreams, enjoying the journey/ creating those memories as it teaches us more about who we are and how we strong we will be from it . Your time is now ,take the steps today to get to where you want to be no matter what as your worth it. Onto keep being here for my community and supporting my loved ones always. Here is to race week ahead for me. Happy Monday. 🥰❤️🫶🏾 #goodvibesonly #communityfirst #strongertogether

#MedalMonday. With one of my favourite races, aka the @priderunto. A race that truly brings the diverse community of toronto together as one. It is always an unforgettable time.

Being an @priderunto ambassador for the 3rd year with many inspiring souls with this many running community/race has taught me a lot while being an ally in the 2SLGBTQ+ communities. I got to see many people take part no matter their age, size, gender or ethnicity as they just came to have fun with celebrating the importance of pride and remembrancing our why through it all.

I listened to my body and raced through it even while going through my current medical battles. I'm still happy that I got to run by the side of my fam @liltle3women and finished strong by helping my fam @missloc cross the finish line. Thankful for my running families @blackrunnersofthegta, @kardiaathletica, @chixrunthesix who were out there cheering, giving me high fives and supporting me all the way to the finish line, This is what the running community is all about and memories I will cherish forever.

This race will always have a special place in my heart. As someone who grew up in a very diverse community on wellesley/scarborough, I will keep encouraging people to spread love all around. Yes, there is a lot of work to be done, but the key is starting. Start small as you can talk about diversity and inclusion forever, but taking action is the only way to change and build a diverse and inclusive community.

Reminder :
Every day, continue to use your voice in the community, with family or on social media to support the 2SLGBTQ+ communities. Creating this space is incredibly valuable for a community that is often sidelined or silenced. Let’s get out there and talk to people. Attending events and speaking to friends and family is the best way to celebrate Pride and celebrate the 2SLGBTQ+ people in our lives. If we all do that a little more, we might start treating the entire year like it’s the right time to celebrate the 2SLGBTQ+ communities.

I look forward to keep supporting this amazing race/ community with positive vibes for years to come. 🥰🌈💜🏃🏾‍♀️ #runhappy #priderunto #communityfirst
