Run for Jayden - Help Send a PEI Athlete to the World Stage

Some dreams are built on talent. Others are built on countless early mornings, late nights, sacrifices, and an unwavering commitment to never giving up.

For Jayden Kamphuis, the journey to the 2026 World Powerlifting Championships in South Africa has been years in the making. While balancing the demands of high school, leadership roles within his school community, work, and intensive training, Jayden has consistently pushed himself to be the best version of himself, both on and off the platform!

A dedicated student, mentor, and athlete, Jayden has represented Prince Edward Island at the provincial, regional, national, and international levels of powerlifting. His work ethic, determination, and positive attitude have earned him the opportunity to represent Canada on the world stage this August 2026.

As exciting as this opportunity is, the costs associated with the international competition are significant. Travel, accommodations, competition fees, and training expenses all add up quickly. That’s why we’re asking our community to come together and help make this dream a reality.

Every step taken during this marathon fundraiser helps Jayden take another step toward South Africa.

Thank you for supporting a young athlete who has dedicated himself to excellence, leadership, and representing Prince Edward Island with pride. Your encouragement and generosity mean more than words can express.

    4th Annual Just Live Fun Run.

    Register for our in-person or virtual event options today!

    Join us August 23, 2026, which happens to be just days after the five

    year Cancer-versary date of Michelle, My Journey to Just Live's, diagnosis with Stage 4 Incurable Cancer. Michelle was diagnosed in 2021 with an ultra rare Sarcoma cancer called Epithelioid Hemangioendothelioma, EHE for short. Michelle has innumerable tumours throughout her body and has made it her mission to chase joy and Just Live!

    She started running in January 2022, 5 months postpartum, and 4 months post diagnosis; she never had run before. Her goal was to set herself up for success, and was hopeful for the best possible outcome to tackle this bleak cancer diagnosis. Michelle has run in countless running events, even half marathons, including one in London, England raising funds for EHE UK Charity. Michelle, with the support of her husband Ty, challenged herself in 2024, and became a triathlete. You can see Michelle's latest documentary, "The Journey Home," where she completed a 126km personal triathlon and took us on a personal journey to redefine a day that a rare sarcoma cancer once stolen from her. Each year just gets better and better!

    As we rally in support of those affected by EHE cancer, the Just Live Fun Run is an opportunity to meet your body where its at with a personal healthy living goal, choosing hard and chasing joy. With community and movement at the heart of this unique day, it is a time to step up, show support and celebrate together!

    The in-person 5km Run and 10km Run will be chip timed. Timing services provided by Atlantic Chip Sport Timing. This year’s route will be the same as 2025, with the start and finish ending at the Cornwall Civic Center.
