SEBASTIEN SASSEVILLE; A MAN ON A MISSION

Covering nearly 7500 km from coast to coast and completing the equivalent of 180 back-to-back marathons, Sebastien Sasseville, an endurance athlete living with type 1 diabetes, will end his epic run across Canada in Vancouver, British Columbia on Friday, November 14, World Diabetes Day.

He will run his final kilometers into historic Stanley Park, reaching the shores of the Pacific Ocean after nine months on the road battling rain, sleet, ice and snow, and more than 30,000 feet of climbing through the Canadian Rockies. Sasseville began his journey to “Outrun Diabetes” on February 2nd in St. John’s, Newfoundland with a mission to inspire, educate and empower the more than three million Canadians living with diabetes and encourage people to live life to the fullest.
