2025 ASICS Move Her Mind Shakeout Run

ASICS Move Her Mind Shakeout Run!

Join us as we celebrate the completion of the TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon Women's Training Program powered by ASICS with the ASICS Move Her Mind Shakeout Run on Saturday, October 18th at 9:00 AM, starting at the Enercare Centre in Toronto. We’ll have a relaxed 3 or 5 km "out-and-back" options to shake off pre-race nerves, with pacing between 6:30 min/km and 11:00 min/km. Feel free to turn back at any point.

After the run, enjoy snacks and goodies from Canadian women-owned businesses, courtesy of ASICS.

Why This Matters: ASICS’ global research shows that when women move, they feel better, yet over half stop exercising due to various barriers. This Shakeout Run is a celebration of your dedication, aiming to inspire and encourage more women to keep moving, no matter the challenges. Even small steps, like joining a local running group or supporting female athletes, can help break down barriers to exercise.

Special Highlights:

• Meet ASICS Canada athletes: Natasha Wodak and Lisa Bentley
• Coach Becky Pieterson will be there to answer any last minute questions and give some tips.
• ASICS Move Her Mind Care Pack: Featuring products from Canadian women-owned businesses for all registered participants. Available to those who register for the event.
• Speaker Series Presentation: Hear inspiring stories from fellow participants of the TWM Women's Training Program
