'Cancer Fights Dirty, But So Do We' is the mantra behind the newest fundraising event happening in support of the Canadian Cancer Society. On Saturday, September 12th, hundreds of women (plus a few children's and men's heats) will take to the hill at Talisman Mountain Springs Inn to battle muddy obstacles and uphill running, all in the name of fighting back against cancer.

This mud run fundraiser features a 5-kilometre obstacle course winding up, down and through the former ski resort hill in Kimberley. Money raised through Mudmoiselle will fund Canada's most promising cancer research and vital support services for cancer patients and their families.

"Two in five Canadians will develop cancer in their lifetime. While survival rates have increased over the years, more work needs to be done," says Tonya Stewart, Director of Special Events at the Canadian Cancer Society in Ontario. "Mudmoiselle gives women the opportunity to get dirty and fight this terrible disease."

The groundbreaking challenge is open to women of all fitness levels, whether they run marathons or run after their kids. "Through Mudmoiselle, women can test their endurance and strength all while supporting Canadians with cancer," says Stewart. "This will be a rewarding experience for girlfriends, mothers and daughters to team up and get dirty for a good cause." This particular Mudmoiselle event is also open to teams of men as well as children under 18, and will be having these teams complete the course in earlier heats than the women-only teams.

Prospective participants, volunteers, sponsors, vendors or supporters are encouraged to visit Mudmoiselle.ca to get all the dirty details on this event or call 519.376.6011 for more info.
