Jon Nabbs: Kiwi runner on his ongoing mission to run across Canada to fund child cancer research

from The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin · host Newstalk ZB

In 2023, Kiwi runner Jon Nabbs set off on a mission to run across Canada to raise money for child cancer research.  He was inspired by the loss of his parents to the disease- just 16 months apart. Jon has confirmed he's expected to reach Vancouver - and the finish line - this week. He says he's got 150 kilometres to go, after battling his way through Canada's rocky mountains last week. "Thankfully, Mother Nature granted me a clear two-day window, and I was able to get up over the pass, down into what they call the lower mainland."
