Halifax, Nova Scotia · Sunday, September 13, 2026
The Oakfield Partners Triathlon is a cycling and triathlon event held on Sunday, September 13, 2026. It is located in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Welcome to the fourth edition of Run With Rob!
After powerful runs across Manitoba in 2023, New Brunswick in 2024, and Prince Edward Island in 2025, Run With Rob is heading to Nova Scotia.
Inspired by the legacy of Terry Fox, Rob Tétrault is running across Nova Scotia to raise awareness and funds for the Canadian CMV Foundation.
Congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the #1 infectious cause of infant disability in Canada, yet the Maritimes still lack universal newborn screening. Universal screening would ensure babies born with CMV get timely interventions, improving health outcomes and reducing lifelong disabilities.
Be part of the movement. Run alongside Rob for one (or more!) of the legs and help push for life-saving screening across the region.
